2014 Atlantic Hurricane Season

NOAA’s predictions are based on the anticipated El Nino development this summer.1 Although it is predicted that the Atlantic coast will experience near-normal or below-normal hurricane season, it is best to be prepared for any category hurricane. June 1st is the official start of hurricane season and the National Weather Service (NWS) National Hurricane Center offers a plethora of resources to ensure your safety.
