So far, NOAA’s ‘above normal’ hurricane season prediction is a bust
10 hours ago Anthony Watts

Remember this from 23 May 2025?

NOAA’s outlook for the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season predicts a 30% chance of a near-normal season, a 60% chance of an above-normal season, and a 10% chance of a below-normal season.

The agency is forecasting a range of 13 to 19 total named storms . Of those, 6-10 are forecast to become hurricanes, including 3-5 major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5; with winds of 178 kmh/111 mph or higher).

NOAA has a 70% confidence in these ranges.

As of today September 27th, 2025 zero hurricanes have made landfall in the United states during the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season. The season runs from June 1st to November 30th. So, we have just 2 months to go and we have already passed the peak climatology for hurricanes in the Atlantic.

The peak of the Atlantic hurricane season is climatologically around September 10th, a date when ocean and atmospheric conditions are typically most conducive to storm development and intensification due to warm sea surface temperatures and low wind shear. While storm activity can begin before and after this date, with the overall season running from June 1st to November 30th, the period between mid-August and mid-October generally experiences the most activity.

While the season has produced five named tropical storms and three hurricanes so far with the names Andrea, Barry, Chantal, Dexter, Erin, and Humberto ….none classified as hurricanes, with Category 1 or higher (with sustained winds of 74 mph or more) have struck US soil.

And, it doesn’t look like Humberto will make US landfall either.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Maybe climate change can have savings accounts where they can store energy from little storms to form a booger banger of a storm for later. *****rollingeyes*****

Every year, they do exactly the same thing. They always predict an above normal hurricane season and it never happens. The same is true of their climate predictions. If you look at their forecast for months ahead they almost always predict above normal temperatures for the entire continental United States. Once again, they are always wrong. And, of course, they never point it out in retrospect.
"If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge

Lol...you can thank us, we spent money on hurricane impact windows and doors along with accordion shutters.  So far we haven't had to use them. 
Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.
