Forecasters reverse course, predict below-average 2018 hurricane season
(Worthy News) – A team of meteorologists, who predicted an above-average 2018 Atlantic hurricane season in April, decreased their forecast on Tuesday.

“We have decreased our forecast and now believe that 2018 will have below-average activity,” the report said. “The tropical and subtropical Atlantic is currently much colder than normal, and the odds of a weak El Niño developing in the next several months have increased.” [ Source: UPI (Read More…) ]
