This hurricane season has been historic and relentless. 

Yet another hurricane is swirling in the Atlantic.

Hurricane Iota could make landfall in Honduras and Nicaragua as a Category 5 storm Monday night. 

The storm has winds of up to 145 miles per hour. 

The National Hurricane Center forecasts it could produce life-threatening storm surges and bring more than a foot of rain to some areas.

Remember, this is the same region where Hurricane Eta recently hit. And many are still working to recover from that storm.
