Hurricane Love was the final official tropical cyclone of the 1950 Atlantic hurricane season. Forming in the northern Gulf of Mexico on October 18, the storm initially drifted westward, but soon curved eastward into the central gulf. The storm eventually peaked with winds corresponding to Category 1 status on the modern-day Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. Despite threatening the western coast of Florida and prompting various preparations, the storm deteroirated due to dry air and moved ashore harmlessly north of Cedar Key.
