By: “Doppler” Dave Speelman The Scoop On This Upcoming Hurricane Season The latest prediction for the Atlantic Hurricane Season is now in. The Tropical Meteorology Project (Dr. Gray and Dr. Klotzbach) out of Colorado State University expect the upcom - ing season to be almost twice as active as the average season.

-16 Named Storms (9.6 is normal) -9 Hurricanes (5.9 is normal) -5 Considered Intense (category 3 or more – wind speeds 111 mph or more) 2.3 intense hurricanes are normal for a season.

Here’s the probability for at least one major hurricane (category 3, 4, 5) making landfall on each of the following coastal areas:

1) Entire U.S. coastline - 72% (average for last century is 52%) 2) U.S. East Coast Including Peninsula Florida - 48% (average for last century is 31%) 3) Gulf Coast from the Florida Panhandle westward to Brownsville - 47% (average for last century is 30%) 4) Caribbean – The team's prediction for the probability for at least one major hurricane tracking into the Caribbean: 61% (average for last century is 42%)

Dr. Gray says he issues these forecasts to “satisfy the curiosity of the general public and to bring attention to the hurricane problem.” There always seems Weather Trivia: to be a general interest in know - ing what the odds are for an ac - When is the start of hurricane season in the United tive or inactive season.
