Everything You Need to Know to Prepare for Hurricane Season 

All right, let's turn to weather. Hurricane season starts tomorrow and shutter has you covered? Meteorologist Lauren De tells us everything you need to know to prepare. All right. Well, June 1st marks the beginning of hurricane season and here's what we can expect going through this season now is the time to prepare. Ok, because that season runs all the way until the end of November. Some info for you during the summer, the El Nino should be near normal this season. I'll break that down what that means coming up and it's quiet so far. Usually the hurricane season though doesn't pick up until the middle until about August sometime. So here's the forecast. Here's Noah's forecast. It look like this year. This season should actually be a little bit below what we consider normal for the hurricane season. Normal is 14, name storms and it looks like we should be about 12 to 17 as far as hurricanes go. Normally there's seven and we're right on par for that 5 to 9. And then major hurricanes, usually there's about three this season. No, is forecasting about 1 to 4. So here's what El Nino means. It looks like in the eastern Pacific warmer air means stormy weather, less wind sheer out there. Let's move over to the Atlantic Ocean, more wind sheer. So that's going to limit any storms. It'll be cool, dry. And again, that does mean fewer storms. And I'll show you where the storms usually form especially early on in the season, they form pretty close to, uh, Florida and also the Gulf of Mexico there and then making its way into the Bay of Campeche down by Mexico going into later on in the season though, it looks like most of them roll off the coast of Africa there and then they eventually make their way towards the United States. And again, by the end of the season, same thing, they continue and they could be pushing in a little bit closer to us here, storm formation. It looks like the intertropical convergence zone and that's most likely where those storms all form. So here's what we can expect as we go throughout the rest of the season. Notice all those storms they usually start to build in by September and then they decrease by the time we end November. So now is the time to start preparing.
