FLORIDA — Anywhere from 17 to 24 named storms with winds 39 mph or greater are forecast during what is expected to be a “highly active” Atlantic hurricane season, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said in its mid-season hurricane outlook update Wednesday.

Hurricane season runs June 1 through Nov. 30.

Of these named storms, anywhere from eight to 13 could become hurricanes with winds of 74 mph or higher, including four to seven major hurricanes that are category 3, 4 or 5 with winds of 111 mph or higher. The updated outlook includes the four named storms to date.

I recall the great climate expert Mikey (Michael Moore) predicting one or even two Katrina sized storms every year going forward from 2005.

The dust and dry air from the African deserts has occupied that space for months, creating a giant sponge to sop up any forming hurricanes.

The “climate change” brainwashing has one side benefit.

Whenever a person uses that term (in a positive light) I know they are a brain dead idiot—dangerous to themselves and others.

It is like wearing a shirt that says “I am stupid”.

Not sure where you are getting your information. In September after Katrina, Rita hit the Texas coast, about 100 miles from where I lived.

But I agree with your overall point that this is mainly hype and sensationalism. We’ve always had hurricanes, floods, drought, heat waves and everything in between.

About as much credence as FDA or CDC. They are much more accurate at post event “predictions” than pre-event predictions.

Since WWII, twice as many Americans will today be exposed to WEATHER.
