Colorado State University has released its forecast for the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season, predicting an unprecedented level of activity with an ACE of 210. Dr. Phil Klotzbach and his team anticipate 23 named storms, 11 of which are expected to become hurricanes, including 5 major hurricanes of Category 3 intensity or greater. This forecast, described as the most aggressive April forecast ever made, marks the highest spring outlook for the Atlantic hurricane season in nearly 30 years, indicating an extremely active season ahead. The forecast attributes the expected increase in hurricane activity to extremely warm tropical Atlantic sea temperatures and the likely development of La Niña conditions. These factors are believed to decrease vertical wind shear in the Caribbean and tropical Atlantic, fostering an environment conducive to more frequent and intense hurricanes. Additionally, the forecast draws parallels with the 1878, 1926, 1998, 2010, and 2020 seasons as analogs, further supported by record-warm sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the Atlantic Basin. This year's forecast also stands out as predicting the highest number of hurricanes ever for an April outlook. The forecast has been translated into Spanish to broaden its accessibility.

"The CSU team is forecasting that out of the 23 named storms, 5 will become major hurricanes of Category 3 intensity or greater. This compares to the 1991-2020 average of 14.4 named storms, 7.2 hurricanes and 3.2 major hurricanes." https://t.co/L2yZr3OfV8 via @afreedma
