Midway Through Hurricane Season - Inactive so far
« on: September 10, 2024, 03:54:55 PM »
We are halfway through the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season, and we have only seen 6 named storms, despite the forecasts calling for 20-25 named storms. Of course, we will continue to see tropical activity through the second half of the season, but the frequency will begin to decrease.

So far looking like the forecasts have been a bust. AccuWeather has reduced their number of storms by 2.

Busted forecast is preferable to verification.

Update:
The Season now stands at 18 Named Storms, making this an above-average season.
Apparently a lot of seasons are tied as most active at 19 storms, but wouldn't be surprised if this season surpasses that number.

Hasn't there been a lot of storms in The Pacific this year?

Though we are mainly focusing on the Atlantic, Pacific looking on fire right now!
