FEWER HURRICANES? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric - TopicsExpress



          

FEWER HURRICANES? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reduced its hurricane projections. Reasons given include: "...a decreased likelihood that La Niña will develop and bring its reduced wind shear that further strengthens the hurricane season. Other factors are the lack of hurricanes through July, more variability in the wind patterns across the tropical Atlantic Ocean and slightly lower hurricane season model predictions." We are nearly at "peak" hurricane season in the Atlantic Basin.
