Hurricane Season Ends Historic As Predicted

Monday officially marks the final day of Atlantic hurricane season, and it has been one for the record books.

2020 has been undoubtedly a crazy year -- with the Covid-19 pandemic, murder hornets, and some of the largest wildfires in recorded history. It seems understandable that hurricane season would also be memorable.

This season was forecast to be a busy season. Two of the most well-known and respected entities that forecast their predictions for the upcoming hurricane season are Colorado State University (CSU) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

CSU’s Tropical Meteorology Project team predicted an above-average Atlantic hurricane season on April 2. The team forecasted 16 named storms, including eight hurricanes.
