Greetings All,
This info is from
Colorado State University team.
Today Klotzbach and his team at Colorado State University issued their well respected
forecast
for the upcoming season. And it is not looking good... This may come
as no surprise, since last year we had the battle between El Nino, which
decreases hurricane activity, and warm sea surface waters, which
increases hurricane activity. El Nino lost...
This year we won't have
an El Nino, but La Nina conditions, which normally enhances hurricane
activity, plus the record warm sea surface temperatures are still here!
As it pertains to St. Kitts & Nevis there normally is a 9% chance of being hit with a hurricane, statically speaking.
For the 2024 season, they are forecasting a 15% chance of a storm over or near our twin island.
Which equates to a 60% increase of a possible "chance".
Maybe nothing to worry about, but still be aware of the potential.
Thanks to La Nina.
Perhaps a saving grace is large Sahara Dust movement across the Atlantic in our direction.
