LOS ANGELES - Coming off a record hurricane season in 2020, the United States should brace for another busy year, according to the NOAA — and forecasters are already tracking two disturbances in the Atlantic Ocean.
Forecasters at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center announced the 2021 Atlantic hurricane season outlook this week and predicted it will be another above-normal season. "Forecasters predict a 60% chance of an above-normal season, a 30% chance of a near-normal season, and a 10% chance of a below-normal season," NOAA wrote in its outlook released Thursday.But experts do not anticipate the historic level of storm activity seen in 2020.
