Time to Pack a Bug-Out Bag, Hurricane Season from Hell Predicted
21 hours ago Charles Rotter 

I live in Fort Lauderale, Florida and this year’s seasonal tropical hurricane forecasts, from multiple sources, are the most dire and frightening I’ve seen, perhaps ever made.

This is coming from multiple sources.

I believe the first out to the gate was Weatherbell, (Joe Bastardi) with their “Hurricane Season From Hell” forecast in December of last year.

A hurricane season from hell is shaping up for 2024.
Very high levels of activity should be prepared for in areas that were essentially left untouched in 2023.
The El Niño will reverse to a La Niña, while the Atlantic basin will be ideal for development.
Very warm water in the northeastern Pacific is likely to mean the kind of pattern over North America that was similar to 2005, 2017, and 2020.
This invited storms to reach the U.S.

Ever since the invention of "climate change," a certain segment has been predicting - every year, without fail - the worst hurricane season ever. I realize Joe Bastardi isn't of that political persuasion, so maybe there's something to it.

A super-charged hurricane season could spawn a near-record number of storms in the Atlantic this year, and forecasters may even run out of names for storms amid a frenzy of tropical systems.

...  Warm water is fuel for tropical systems, and there will be plenty of warm water for fledgling systems to tap into and strengthen.

"Sea-surface temperatures are well above historical average across much of the Atlantic basin, especially across the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean and the Main Development Region [for hurricanes]," DaSilva explained. The Atlantic water temperatures observed in March were around or even warmer than they were in March ahead of the blockbuster 2005 and 2020 hurricane seasons. ...

Unusually warm water could also help to spawn tropical systems in November when the Atlantic hurricane season is winding down. ...

"The Texas coast, Florida Panhandle, South Florida and the Carolinas are at a higher-than-average risk of direct impacts this season," DaSilva said.  ...

I'm already prepped for another hurricane season. Bug out bag -- only if we flood, so maybe we should invest in a couple of inflatable rafts? :shrug:
