2026 Hurricane Season Could Be Quieter
About this episode
The episode discusses the early forecast for the 2026 hurricane season, indicating it may be quieter due to El Niño effects.
Colorado State University’s early 2026 hurricane forecast hints at a quieter Atlantic season—13 named storms, 6 becoming hurricanes, 2 reaching major status—thanks to an incoming El Niño, which boosts wind shear and disrupts storm formation. While aligned with last year’s activity, this prediction underscores the importance of staying alert. The Climate Prediction Center expects La Niña to fade into ENSO-neutral by month’s end, paving the way for El Niño’s dominance through the year. NOAA’s official outlook will follow in May, but this early look offers valuable prep time—even for a less active season. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
