Hurricane Ivan in 1980 developed unusually far northeastward for an Atlantic hurricane. It formed atypically, in association with an upper-level low near the Azores. Moving southwestward, Ivan became the season's ninth named storm and seventh hurricane, reaching peak winds of 105 mph (165 km/h). Along its path, Ivan executed two loops, tracked west-northwestward, and maintained peak winds for about 90 hours. It eventually turned northeastward, and late on October 11 the hurricane was absorbed by an approaching cold front. It did not cause any damage or deaths.
