2020 hurricane season

The 2020 Atlantic Hurricane season was nothing short of historic, and many coastal residents are thankful the record-breaking season has come to a close.

The traditionally busier weeks of the Atlantic hurricane season are upon us, and two new tropical storms may develop this week.

Colorado State University (CSU) released their final Atlantic hurricane season forecast for 2020, raising the number of tropical storms and hurricanes from their previous forecasts and now calling for an “extremely active” hurricane season.

A new tropical wave in the Central Atlantic has the potential to become the seasons ninth named storm in the next day or two, and Meteorologist Dr. Athena Masson explains why this is one we will be watching closely.

Hanna is the first named hurricane of the season that began in June.
