CNN - The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season isn’t here yet, but is already shaping up to be one for the books, with more hurricanes and named storms predicted in a pre-season forecast from Colorado State University than ever before.

This June through November could see 23 named storms in all, including 11 hurricanes and five Category 3 or higher “major” hurricanes, according to the university’s Atlantic hurricane season forecast, released Thursday.

“This is the most active April forecast that we have ever issued,” lead forecaster Phil Klotzbach told CNN. “Our prior highest hurricane forecast in April was 9 hurricanes, which we have called for several times” since the forecasts began in 1995.

Of course it does. And Climate Change will still be blamed when reality doesn’t meet predictions.

They say the same chit every year. I suppose one year it will actually happen.

Same as last year, only it never happened. One of these years they’re bound to get it right.

Then the next year, they’’ crow about how they were right and we need to listen as the upcoming year will be even worse due to climate change or something.

The people in the panhandle of Florida and Naples area certainly saw it.

CNN is the “land line” of television.
Admit it, CNN, both households watching you do so only because it gives them something to do while taking drugs.

It’s the same as the stock market analysts who predict recession all the time. Sooner or later they’ll be right.

I wonder if anyone has tracked predictions versus reality for years past. I seem to recall a couple years where an active season was forecast and it turned out to be a dud.

When you taint the model with a fake accelerator of “increasing Global Warming” risk, of course the model will show “more,” regardless of the truth.

It just means models will continue to be ever more wrong, going forward, without subsequent model corrections back down to the mean.

The panhandle saw more storms last year than ever? We in North Central Florida didn’t....

CNN headline:

“Earliest look at hurricane season is calling for more storms than it’s ever predicted”

I’m less worried about the hurricane season than the illogical and uneducated brain that wrote the headline. Sad decline in “press” standards.

God created Florida in order to give hurricanes a place to visit.
