List of Florida hurricanes (2000–present)
The list of Florida hurricanes from 2000 to the present has been marked by several devastating North Atlantic hurricanes; as of 2013, 63 tropical or subtropical cyclones have affected the U.S. state of Florida. Collectively, cyclones in Florida during the time period resulted in more than $64 billion in damage (2008 USD). Additionally, tropical cyclones in Florida were responsible for 69 direct fatalities and at least 82 indirect casualties during the period. Eight cyclones affected the state in both 2004 and 2005, which were the years with the most tropical cyclones affecting the state. Every year included at least one tropical cyclone affecting the state. During the 2004 season, more than one out of every five houses in the state received damage.[1]
The strongest hurricane to hit the state during the time period was Hurricane Charley, which was the strongest hurricane to strike the United States since Hurricane Andrew. Additionally, Hurricanes Jeanne, Dennis, and Wilma made landfall on the state as major hurricanes.
2000
- August 23, 2000 – The National Hurricane Center forecasts Hurricane Debby to pass through the Florida Keys as a Category 2 hurricane, with one computer model predicting a Category 4 hurricane in the area.[2] This results in officials declaring a mandatory evacuation for all non-residents in the keys, causing a significant loss of tourism revenue for Monroe County. Debby dissipates before hitting the area, though its remnants produce heavy rainfall across southern Florida.[3]
- September 9, 2000 – Moisture from Tropical Depression Nine produce light rainfall in the western Florida Panhandle.[4]
- September 18, 2000 – Tropical Storm Gordon makes landfall on Cedar Key, dropping up to 9.48 inches (240 mm) of rainfall in Mayo.[5] Hundreds of homes are damaged from floodwaters or fallen trees, and damage in the state amounts to at least $5.1 million (2000 USD, $6.4 million 2008 USD).[6] A surfer drowns in rough seas near Pensacola.[7]
- September 22, 2000 – Tropical Storm Helene hits near Pensacola, damaging hundreds of homes from floodwaters. Monetary damage totals over $1 million (2000 USD, $1.3 million 2008 USD).[8]
- October 3, 2000 – The precursor disturbance to Tropical Storm Leslie produces 10—20 inches (255–510 mm) of rainfall across southeastern Florida, flooding about 93,000 houses. The flooding causes $950 million in damage (2000 USD, $1.2 billion 2008 USD),[9] along with three indirect deaths.[10]

The winds down more than 125,000 ft³ (3,540 m³) at a forest near Pensacola, while strong waves and a 10–15 foot (3—4.5 m) storm surge severely damages the Interstate 10 bridge in Pensacola. Throughout the state damage totals $8 billion (2004 USD, $9.1 billion 2008 USD), and 14 people die in the state from the hurricane.

2014
- July 2 - Hurricane Arthur passed just off the coast of Eastern Florida. Its outer rainbands caused strong straight line winds from thunderstorms, peaking at 83 mph, though these winds only caused $23,000 (2015 USD). About 2 inches of rain fell in the state as well.

2015
- August 30–31 - Tropical Storm Erika threatens the eastern coast, as it was initially forecast to make landfall as a Category 1 hurricane, but instead got ripped up by the mountains of Hispaniola. Its remnants passed towards the west coast and produced rain.
