The Atlantic hurricane season is poised to deliver another round of above-normal storms for the seventh consecutive year, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said on Tuesday.
NOAA forecasters estimate 14 to 21 named storms, six to 10 of which will become hurricanes, with three to six of those developing into major hurricanes during the June 1 to Nov. 30 season.
Climate change is warming ocean temperatures that have led to more destructive and damaging storms, forecasters say. "We simply can't point to a particular storm, a strong storm like Hurricane Ida, and say 'there is climate change,'" Spinrad said of hurricane development. NOAA focuses on weather patterns, warming sea temperatures and west African monsoons "as the climatological factors we're looking at" as key factors.
