Answer 10

You're welcome. :) Also, The article mentions that the first storm to hit in 1901 was called the "Tropical storm One". Here is a bit about it:

The season had an early start with a tropical storm forming near the Isla de la Juventud on June 11. It passed over the western tip of Cuba and moved through the Gulf of Mexico as a weak tropical storm, finally hitting the Florida Panhandle on June 14. After moving inland, the storm rapidly weakened to a tropical depression. It continued northward and eventually curved northwestward. By June 15, the storm dissipated over southern Illinois.

Answer 11

So, the first hurricane to hit America in the 20th century occurred in June 14 of 1901. :)
