You can thank dust from the Sahara Desert and fast-moving, fast-changing winds for preventing named storms from forming this hurricane season – but the dust and winds won’t last much longer. Despite the season's slow start, weather forecasters expect above-normal activity for the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season. Here’s a look at storm trends and how wind and dust can inhibit storm formation. There have been three named storms so far this year. An average Atlantic hurricane season has 14 named storms, seven of which become hurricanes. The 2005 season set a single-year record with 28 storms. Tropical Storm Colin, 2022's
I distinctly recall in 2005 they told us this was just the beginning and that seasons like that were now the norm. Then they stopped talking about it for a while when there were less active seasons.

I wondered how much longer they could go without declaring that we were due for some "monster" storms. Didn't have much last year or the year before. Here in NC we always keep an eye on the weather heading into later summer and it's been four or five years since we've had even a tropical storm. We are overdue, but Jen's wishin' and hopin' ain't gonna make it happen...

The media are truly desperate for some hurricanes. The Weather Channel, about a week ago, was showing footage of a hurricane from A YEAR AGO, just so they could push their Climate Change Propaganda.

It has been a few years since I saw any of these, but for a long time every year experts expected above-normal activity. The reporters always told you how "well-respected" the forecasters were, but never mentioned what their prediction had been for the previous year.

I can't quite fathom that the media is itching for a big storm hit on the US so Bidet can show how to wisely and effectively manage a destructive weather event. Perhaps a hand off to the Veep to show her leadership chops.

Hurricane season starts in June, it is mid August and NOT ONE. It is a weak hurricane system, for sure.

Every year this story is renewed.
We have had hurricane all of my life , some bad some not so bad, but rest assured if we have a bad one this year the media will say it's the environment.

Hey Jen - what penalty do you pay for being wrong with your predictions? Asking for a bunch of friends who are mortally sick of "journalists" who peddle fear-porn.

The Atlantic Hurricanes tend to show up in Sept and October historically. I’ve lived on the gulf coast in NW Florida for 23 years and it’s typically quiet until these months. They are hoping for historical data to bail out their faulty predictions. We have paid huge insurance premiums here due to their faulty predictions impacting the actuarial tables which are total BS!

Each year the experts lie, and each year the homeowners insurance companies use the predictions as a pretext to hike the rates even more obscenely higher. Any guesses as to who pays the experts to be wrong each and each year?

They'll be completely wrong again and then immediately forget they ever made the prediction.

And their "third named storm" existed for TWO days and didn't come ashore. Irrelevant.
They are desperate to redefine the numbers by adding these irrelevant joke "storms" as if they were hurricanes, when they barely would qualify as a squall. Professional liars at this organization.

Every storm should be called FJB.

I predict a record LOW number of HURRICANES. My personal weather accounting system ONLY counts hurricanes, not "storms", and certainly not ones that exist, start to finish for two days. That is desperate to essentially invent storms.

Living near the water on the Mississippi gulf coast (ground zero for both hurricanes Camille and Katrina) I keep a close eye on the weather patterns this time of year. I find 'Windy.com' is a good weather source, as is 'https://spaghettimodels.com/'.
Hurricane season 'officially starts' in June, but it has a rather sharp peak around Labor Day.
EVERY year the 'experts' predict an 'above average' season... I guess if they are afraid that if they predicted a 'below average' season, people would stop listening to them and their Budget would be cut.
The Media (Mark Robinson calls the MEDIA the 'Most Evil Demon In America') of course prays to their god, Satan, for bad storms.... they get Lots of Viewers, sell Lots of Advertising and make Lots of Money, while they get to push their Climate Scam and CO-2 scam.
Still..... the next few weeks are the critical time, just as it is every year.

The media is practically begging Mother Nature to whip-up some hurricanes. She's messing up their end-of-the-world narrative.
