NOAA forecasters at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration say a near-normal Atlantic hurricane season is most likely this year.This is not exactly news (a 50% chance of anything doesn’t really tell us too much) - but no news is good news - right?
The initial forecast for the 2009 Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June through November, and which covers a region that includes the North Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, and the Gulf of Mexico, predicts a 50 % probability of a near-normal season, but for those who want to worry about this, the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center also warns of a 25 % probability of an above-normal season.
