This season is already one
This season is already one for the record books. They have blown through the alphabet of people names and are now using Greek letters to name storms. Tropical Storm Alpha is hitting Portugal today and Tropical Storm Beta should be forming in the Gulf any moment now.
The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season is now the second busiest on record next to the 2005 season. However, they didn't get to the Greek alphabet names in 2005 until October 22.

I've got a secret getaway
I've got a secret getaway scheduled for the gulf in a couple of weeks, and it was hit dead on by Sally. So far, looks like recovery is going well, and no one there was killed, thankfully.

Delta looks like it will
Delta looks like it will follow more or less the same path as Laura back in August and has its sights set on Lake Charles, LA. Was looking at some recent drone footage of Lake Charles and a quarter of the homes still have blue tarps up and there are still huge piles of debris laying around from the last time around:
