NOAA is forecasting a range of 17 to 25 total named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher). Of those, 8 to 13 are forecast to become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including 4 to 7 major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5; with winds of 111 mph or higher). Forecasters have a 70% confidence in these ranges.

    If you find these storms interesting, allow me to plug Tropical Tidbits (Dr. Levi Cowan) on YouTube. I’m not affiliated in anyway, just a fan.

    Whenever there’s an active system out there, he almost always posts a few videos during its run, with a very in-depth analysis.

    Tornados, hurricanes, etc… All I want to ask these conservative climate change deniers living in these areas is whether they still believe the bullshit.

      Even better, they’re actively preparing to vote for people determined to completely dismantle and privatize NOAA, per the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 guidelines. They won’t have to worry about the scary weather news anymore after they do that.
