Today NOAA released its 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season forecast. It calls for 17-25 named storms, 8-13 hurricanes and 4-7 major hurricanes. There’s an 85% chance of an above-average season and only a 5% chance it ends up below normal. This is their most aggressive forecast on record.

It should be quiet through the end of May. The season begins on June 1st. We are looking towards the first 2 weeks in June for potential development in the western Caribbean Sea. We will keep you updated if any appears to develop during that time frame. This will be the last preseason alert.
