The 2020 season will likely bring from 19 to 25 named storms, according to a forecaster at NOAA. 'We've never forecast up to 25 storms,' he said.
There is an 85% chance of 2020 being an"above-normal" hurricane season, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said on Thursday. Here, a NOAA GOES-East satellite image shows last year's Hurricane Dorian, which made landfall on North Carolina's Outer Banks on Sept. 6. Hurricane Isaias made landfall in North Carolina earlier this week.
The previous high, Bell added, was the maximum 21 storms that were predicted in 2005 — which became a record-setting hurricane season in the United States. Uccellini added,"There is also a much higher potential for this season to be classified as an extremely active season." From 1981 to 2010, there have been an average of 12.1 named storms in the Atlantic season, according to Colorado State.— a record-breaking year for communities along the Atlantic Ocean when major storms such as Katrina, Rita, Dennis and Wilma caused chaos.
