The 1905 Atlantic hurricane season officially began on June 1, 1905, and lasted until November 30, 1905. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin.
The 1905 season was very inactive. Of the five tropical storms that formed, only one became a hurricane. That one hurricane achieved major hurricane strength before spinning out to sea.
