List of hurricanes named Nate
The name Nate was used for three tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean. All three of them peaked at Category 1 intensity on the Saffir–Simpson scale.
- Hurricane Nate (2005) — strong category 1 hurricane that stayed out in the open ocean.
- Hurricane Nate (2011) — weak short-lived hurricane that hit the eastern coast of Mexico.
- Hurricane Nate (2017) — made landfall in Nicaragua as a moderate tropical storm, emerged into the Gulf of Mexico, and made a second landfall near the mouth of the Mississippi River in Louisiana as a strong Category 1 hurricane.
After the 2017 season, the World Meteorological Organization retired the name Nate from its rotating name lists, and it will not be used again for another Atlantic hurricane. It will be replaced with Nigel for the 2023 season.
