Atlantic Hurricane Forecasts and Tips to Prepare for Storms Before the Storm

Posted on June 3, 2021

Last month, Aspera shared Atlantic Hurricane Season Forecasts from CSU and AccuWeather. In late May, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Prediction Center issued its outlook for a 60{241d69fb6cc1b5cacc5f3e2661eaf0e97e5fed421b543841c6865fd1a2ecc898} chance for a above-normal 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season.

NOAA predicts 13 to 20 named storms, of which 6 to 10 could become hurricanes, including 3 to 5 major hurricanes.

In addition to El Nino’s neutral phase, which won’t lower the intensity of hurricane season, warmer-than-average temperatures in the tropical Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, weaker tropical Atlantic trade winds, and an enhanced west African monsoon could increase the chances for tropical activity in the Atlantic.

The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30. The Atlantic has already seen one named storm, Ana.

Aspera will send the update to NOAA’s 2021 Hurricane forecast after the agency publishes the forecast in August – before hurricane season historically peaks.
