🌀 Is an above average Atlantic hurricane season brewing for 2024? 🌀 The latest analysis examines several key factors that could line up for an active tropics season this year, including abnormally warm sea surface temperatures across the main development region, higher moisture content indicated by precipitation anomaly forecasts, and the likelihood of a moderate to strong La Niña event. What are the implications on your fleet operations throughout this season?

🌀🌀🌀 As hurricanes are becoming more intense, they may need a new category - Category 6. 🌊 #Hurricane categories run from 1 to 5, with Category 5 hurricanes having wind speeds of 156 mph or stronger — enough to produce "catastrophic" damage, which NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration says can result in "complete roof failure on many residences and industrial buildings," as well as extended power outages. "We found that five storms had exceeded this hypothetical Category 6, and that all of them were recent, since 2013," Wehner told CBS News.  The most intense of those five storms was Hurricane Patricia, which peaked with wind speeds well over 200 mph before making landfall in Mexico as a Category 4 in October 2015. Patricia "intensified at a rate rarely observed in a tropical cyclone," according to the National Hurricane Center. NOAA reported that the storm hit maximum winds of 215 mph, nearly 60 mph faster than the lower bar of the Category 5 designation. #weather #noaa #climate #weatherforecast #science #climatechange #meteorology #meteorologist #news #datacenter #disasterrecovery Daniel Hungerford, Ben Green, Matthew Browning, Ryan Pelosi, CoreSite

Experts have predicted an "extremely active" 2024 Atlantic #hurricaneseason ... and Mason Claims' team of independent adjusters is ready to assist! "We anticipate a well above-average probability for major hurricanes making landfall along the continental United States coastline and in the Caribbean," researchers from the Colorado State University Tropical Meteorology Project said in a 44-page report released on Thursday. Activity in the 2024 season will rise considerably above the 1991-2020 average, with researchers predicting 23 named storms and 115 named storm days. Previous years had an average of 14.4 named storms and 69.4 named storm days. https://lnkd.in/ekTu-yfT #propertycasualtyinsurance #propertycasualty #insuranceadjuster #insuranceclaims #insurance #CATclaims #claimsmanagement #claims #claimsadjuster #adjuster #independentadjuster #severeweather #WindDamage #stormdamage

It may feel like a "slow" start to the North America hurricane season (the first named storm typically forms in mid to late June), but we've got upcoming Tropical Storm Alberto followed by another tropical system forming in the same location, and AG2 Trader customers can read all about it in our Trader Blog. As meteorologist Edward Vallee says, "The exact path, while a good starting point, can be misleading as it pertains to tropical system impacts. At Atmospheric G2, our meteorologists provide valuable insights beyond the cookie cutter discussions found throughout the meteorological world today - details and context matter!"

The hurricane season started with a record-breaking early CAT 5 storm (Beryl) - blowing in two weeks earlier than the last early-season CAT 5 on record. WHY you ask? Some scientists believe that increasing sea temperatures will increase the likelihood of big storms this season. WHY does that matter to me, you might ask? Because human activity is partially to blame for the increase in sea temperatures as a result of the CO2 we are pumping into the atmosphere. Learn more about this stormy phenomenon below:

Forecasters from AccuWeather anticipate possible tropical development in the northwest Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico between June 13 and 16, which is earlier than the typical first named storm date of June 20. A wet climate and unusually warm seas encourage development, yet closeness to land may prevent substantial strengthening. A lot of rain is predicted for Florida, Cuba, and the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. There's also a chance that tropical storms could pass through Florida or stall in the Gulf. We are expecting a robust hurricane season. #TropicalStorm #HurricaneSeason #AccuWeather #CaribbeanWeather #GulfOfMexico #FloridaRain #HeavyRain #FlashFlooding #WeatherAlert #TropicalDevelopment #HurricaneForecast #Meteorology #ClimateWatch #StormPreparedness #JetStream #WarmWaters #MoistEnvironment #TropicalDepression #WeatherUpdate #FloodWarning
