El Niño reorders hurricane risk: calmer Atlantic, stormier Pacific

El Niño reorders hurricane risk: calmer Atlantic, stormier Pacific

Forecasters expect a strong El Niño this summer (about 98% chance, with an 80% chance of moderate/strong), which tends to suppress Atlantic hurricane activity through increased wind shear and dry air, leading to fewer Atlantic storms and lower US landfall risk, while boosting activity in the eastern/central Pacific. Historical data show Atlantic totals fall during El Niño years, whereas the Pacific often sees more storms; NOAA also projects an above-normal eastern Pacific season and a generally lower Atlantic season, with regional risks (e.g., Hawaii) varying by location and storm track.

Night Sky Lights Up US: Aurora Could Reach 24 States Tonight

NOAA forecasts a minor geomagnetic storm that could push the aurora well south of its usual range, potentially visible across 24 U.S. states tonight, with peak viewing between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time in clear, dark skies; Alaska is most favorable, but a broad swath from the West to the Northeast could see shimmering skies if conditions hold and solar activity remains strong.

Northern Lights Light Up 25 States Tonight—Where to See Them

The aurora borealis could be visible across 25 U.S. states tonight, from Alaska to parts of the Northeast, with the best views in dark, rural locations after nightfall (roughly 10 p.m.–2 a.m.). NOAA’s space weather forecast indicates varying auroral activity, so observers should seek clear northern horizons and consider long-exposure photography to capture the display.

"Essential Guide to the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season"

The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season is expected to be highly active, with NOAA forecasting 17-25 named storms, 8-13 hurricanes, and 4-7 major hurricanes. The season runs from June 1 to November 30, with the peak typically occurring in August and September. Factors contributing to the aggressive forecast include extremely warm Atlantic waters and the potential development of a La Niña. Experts urge residents to prepare now, emphasizing the importance of having a plan, an emergency kit, and knowing evacuation zones.

The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a disturbance in the southwest Atlantic with a 10% chance of developing into a tropical or subtropical system as it moves northeastward through the weekend. This comes just days before the official start of the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season, which NOAA predicts will be very active with 17-25 named storms.
