NOAA projects below-average 2026 Atlantic hurricane season

NOAA’s 2026 Atlantic hurricane outlook calls for a below-average season, with fewer named storms and hurricanes than the long-term average. Forecasters point to expected atmospheric and oceanic conditions—such as increased wind shear and climate variability patterns tied to ENSO—that typically suppress development in the Atlantic. Even in a quieter season, residents should not become complacent: stay informed through official updates, review preparedness and evacuation plans, and monitor any storms that do form.

Kanye West Hit With Six-Figure Verdict Over Uncleared Hurricane Sample

A jury found Kanye West (Ye) and his companies liable for six-figure damages after determining he infringed the copyright by using an unreleased demo track, MSD PT2, as the backbone of an early version of Hurricane shown at a Donda listening event. Ye was personally liable for $176,153, Yeezy LLC for $176,153, with Yeezy Supply and Mascotte Holdings ordered to pay $41,625 and $44,627 respectively. Plaintiffs Artists Revenue Advocates argued there was no license or clearance; Ye testified he removed the sample after clearance issues. The judge previously dismissed some related interpolation claims, and appeals could follow.

Ye Settles In on Sampling Claims in Hurricane Copyright Trial

Kanye West testified in a Los Angeles copyright trial over an early Hurricane demo that allegedly used an uncleared MSD PT2 sample. Ye said he followed the normal steps to clear the sample and that the four producers—DJ Khalil, Sam Barsh, Dan Seeff and Josh Mease—dragged their feet, while defending his practice of crediting collaborators and royalties. The case, which could affect royalties from the Atlanta listening party, merchandise, and a $750,000 Apple Music livestream deal, is limited to the early demo version rather than the final versions of Hurricane. This marks Ye’s first time taking a sampling-related case to trial.
