The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Overall, the season featured two tropical storms and six hurricanes in the Atlantic basin, none of which intensified into a major hurricane.
- However, in the absence of modern satellite monitoring and remote-sensing technologies, only storms that affected populated land areas or encountered ships at sea were recorded, so the actual total could be higher.
- An undercount bias of zero to six tropical cyclones per year between 1851 and 1885 and zero to four per year between 1886 and 1910 has been estimated.
