BASSETERRE, St Kitts (WINN) — With the start of the Atlantic Hurricane season in June not too far away, forecasters are predicting a below average season.
The Colorado State University Tropical Meteorology project is predicting that the region will see 13 named storms for the season.
Researchers say they anticipate that the 2019 Atlantic basin hurricane season will have slightly below regular activity due to the current weak El Niño event which appears likely to persist and perhaps strengthen.
According to researchers, the sea surface temperatures averaged across the Tropical Atlantic are slightly below normal, and the far North Atlantic is anomalously cool.
In a statement, researchers said: “We anticipate a slightly below-average probability for major hurricanes making landfall along the continental United States coastline and in the Caribbean. As is the case with all hurricane seasons, coastal residents are reminded that it only takes one hurricane making landfall to make it an active season for them. They should prepare the same for every season, regardless of how much activity is predicted.”

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
