Where have all the Atlantic hurricanes gone? El Nino might bring record slow storm season
· KRGV (NBC 5)
This hurricane season has been unusually quiet in the Atlantic, primarily due to a strong El Niño that disrupts storm formation. The National Hurricane Center reports no hurricanes have developed so far, with only five weak tropical storms recorded. The current season has set a record for the longest start without a hurricane reaching 74 mph winds. Meteorologists attribute this inactivity to high wind shear and dry air conditions caused by El Niño. While the Gulf of Mexico remains less affected, experts warn that storms could still develop later in the season, despite the overall low activity in the Atlantic.
