  • This forecast follows five of the last six seasons having above-average storm activity due to factors including abnormally warm Atlantic and Gulf sea surface temperatures.
  • Among the forecasted storms, six to ten could become hurricanes and three to five are expected to reach major hurricane status with destructive winds and flooding potential.
  • Ken Graham, who leads the National Weather Service, indicated that conditions are set for a season with above-average storm activity, highlighting that increased rainfall and flooding make water the leading cause of fatalities.
  • The forecast implies continued risk for tens of millions, underscoring the need for preparedness as flooding and storm surge remain the leading causes of death and damage.
