Hurricane Season Predictions 2021
Scientists are predicting a very active Atlantic Hurricane Season this year.
Colorado State University calls for 17 named storms, 8 hurricanes and 4 major hurricanes. These predictions are 43% higher than a "normal" hurricane season.
Researchers at CSU are
once again predicting an above average hurricane season this year. The main driver behind that prediction is the likely absence of El Niño,
according to the release
. Other factors include near-normal tropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures and much warmer than normal subtropical Atlantic sea surface temperatures.
“El Niño tends to increase upper-level westerly winds across the Caribbean into the tropical Atlantic, tearing apart hurricanes as they try to form,” according to CSU’s Dr. Phil Klotzbach.
Although it is not 100% certain that these predictions are accurate, one thing that Miami Insurance Brokers knows for certain is that taking action NOW, by getting the right insurance coverage is the first step in being prepared for this hurricane season.
