The 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season is now just 100 days away. The season officially runs from June 1 to Nov. 30. However, storms can still develop before and after these dates. Early outlooks suggest that the upcoming season could be more active than normal because of record warm water temperatures in the tropical Atlantic (where storms frequently track) along with El Niño transitioning to La Niña. History has taught us that La Niña can lower wind shear in the Atlantic, allowing for greater activity.

In September of 2022, Hurricane Ian made landfall as a Category 4 storm with sustained winds of 150 miles per hour. Ian was deemed the deadliest and costliest storm in Southwest Florida history. The Cat 4 storm also was recorded to have the greatest rainfall, highest storm surge, and the highest sustained wind at landfall in the region’s history.

CSU just released their forecast for the upcoming Atlantic Hurricane Season. They're calling for an above average season due to warm Atlantic waters & the lack of EL Nino. During El Nino years, there is higher shear which helps limit storm development & strengthening. @winknews https://t.co/3MygnWIAYm
