With Felix following the footsteps of Hurricane Dean in achieving Category 5 intensity, 2007 becomes the first time since record-keeping began in 1851 that the first two hurricanes of the Atlantic hurricane season were Category 5. In fact, there are only three other instances when the first hurricane of the season reached Category 5 status: 1992 (Hurricane Andrew), 1980 (Hurricane Allen) and 1977 (Hurricane Anita).
