Summary

NOAA's Hurricane Forecast

Brace for a potentially fierce 2025 Atlantic hurricane season, as NOAA predicts 13 to 18 named storms, including 5 to 9 hurricanes and 2 to 5 major hurricanes. With a 50% chance of above-normal activity, the season, spanning from June 1 to November 30, has already seen four tropical storms emerge, but no hurricanes—yet.

Summary

Hurricane Center Monitoring

The National Hurricane Center is closely watching Invest 96L, a tropical wave in the central Atlantic with a 60% chance of evolving into a tropical depression. As it heads northwest, Bermuda could face its effects. Additionally, a low-pressure system near North Carolina may boost rain chances, though Florida remains safe from its reach.
