"Florida Braces for Hyperactive 2024 Hurricane Season with Increased Preparations"
NOAA has forecasted an "extraordinary" 2024 Atlantic hurricane season with up to 25 named storms, the highest number ever predicted in a preseason outlook. This active season is attributed to record warm Atlantic waters and a potential La Niña climate pattern. Other forecasters, including Colorado State University and the UK Met Office, also predict an unusually active season. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, with peak activity from mid-August to mid-October.
