Taking a Look at Hurricane Season for 2020

It’s been a busy year, but one thing that can really turn it on its head is the hurricane season. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1st to November 30th, which means we are right in the thick of it. The biggest question is “what will happen with Atlantic hurricanes this season?” And while we can’t provide an accurate depiction of what will happen, we can use past, present, and future predictions to show us what is possible. Here are a few things to remember as we look at the hurricane season in 2020 and how Big Bags USA is ready to help you get prepared and stay safe.

The NOAA’s Predictions

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is who everyone relies on to provide up to date and accurate information about what is happening out there in the water. They published an article back in May that gave a little bit of insight as to what can be expected through the rest of the summer and fall. Their Climate Prediction Center predicted that there was a 60% chance of an above-normal season, only a 30% chance of a near-normal season and only a 10% chance of a below-normal season.

They are predicting 13 to 19 named storms, meaning that the winds of 39 mph or higher. Of those, 6 to 10 could become hurricanes with winds of 74 mph or higher, including 3-6 major hurricanes between a category 3 and 5 with winds of 111 mph or higher.

An average hurricane season consists of 12 named storms with 6 of those becoming hurricanes and 3 of those being major hurricanes.

“NOAA’s analysis of current and seasonal atmospheric conditions reveals a recipe for an active Atlantic hurricane season this year,” said Neil Jacobs, Ph.D., acting NOAA administrator. “Our skilled forecasters, coupled with upgrades to our computer models and observing technologies, will provide accurate and timely forecasts to protect life and property.”
