Hurricane Danny was the fourth tropical storm, the second hurricane, and the first major hurricane of the 2999 Atlantic Hurricane Season. On July 13, a tropical depression formed north of French Guiana, moving northwest. Due to a burst of convection, the already-being-issued Tropical Depression Five was upgraded to Tropical Storm Danny. Due to wind-shear moving north, Danny curved northward, though Danny did not weaken. Hurricane Danny briefly attained Category 4 strength before weakening rapidly before landfall. Hurricane Warnings were still remaining issued for the Eastern Coast of the USA.

| - Hurricane Danny was the fourth tropical storm, the second hurricane, and the first major hurricane of the 2999 Atlantic Hurricane Season. On July 13, a tropical depression formed north of French Guiana, moving northwest. Due to a burst of convection, the already-being-issued Tropical Depression Five was upgraded to Tropical Storm Danny. Due to wind-shear moving north, Danny curved northward, though Danny did not weaken. Danny strengthened continuously to surpass Category 1 strength. Hurricane Watches were issued for the northeastern coast of the United States. Danny strengthened until a Category 3. Hurricane Danny briefly attained Category 4 strength before weakening rapidly before landfall. Hurricane Warnings were still remaining issued for the Eastern Coast of the USA. Danny made landfall in Delaware as a minimal Category 1, causing 6 million dollars in damage. Hurricane Danny then made landfall in Maryland, causing 4 million dollars for damage. Hurricane Danny rapidly deteriorated as it moved inland, degenerating into a remnant low on July 18. Hurricane Danny's remnants brought light rain inland. Danny was originally though that it regenerated due to a small defined circulation center that was travelling in the same direction Danny's remnants. It eventually turned out to be a low-pressure system that unusually had a defined center over land.
