Expert weather forecasters are projecting a significant number of dangerous storms this year. The 2024 Atlantic Hurricane season is predicted to bring 24 named storms, 11 of which could become hurricanes, and six of which could reach Category 3 or stronger. This is far beyond the 30-year average and notably above the storms we had in 2023. That's why a panel discussion was hosted in Fairfield ahead of the June first start date. We spoke with Senator Tony Hwang, who moderated the meeting, and gave us feedback from experts who addressed residents. Image Credit: Getty Images

..DANIELLE BECOMES THE FIRST ATLANTIC HURRICANE OF THE SEASON... At 300 PM GMT (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Danielle was about 885 miles (1425 km) west of the Azores (near latitude 37.9 North, longitude 43.3 West). Danielle is moving toward the west near 1 mph (2 km/h). The hurricane is forecast to meander over the open Atlantic during the next couple of days, then slowly turn toward the northeast early next week. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. Some additional strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km).

The 1944 Great Atlantic hurricane was destructive and powerful and swept across a large portion of the US east coast in September 1944. An area of tropical thunderstorms was first identified well east of the Lesser Antilles on September 4, the disturbance only became well organized to be considered a tropical storm on September 9 northeast of the Virgin Islands. Moving west-northwest, the storm gradually intensified and reached peak intensity as a Category 4-equivalent hurricane on September 13 north of the Bahamas after curving northward. A day later, the storm passed by the Outer Banks and later made landfall on Long Island as a weaker hurricane on September 15. Passing close to the Outer Banks, strong winds were reported across eastern North Carolina, and knocked out telecommunications networks on the Outer Banks. Small homes were leveled by the winds. The hurricane was infamous for the amount of damage it caused along the New Jersey coastline. The shore towns on Long Beach Island, Atlantic City and Cape May all suffered major damage. Long Beach Island, Barnegat Island and Brigantine all lost their causeways to the mainland in the storm effectively cutting them off from the rest of New Jersey. Additionally, both islands lost hundreds of homes. In Atlantic City the hurricane's storm surge forced water into the lobbies of many of the resorts famous hotels. The Atlantic City boardwalk suffered major damage and in some places was deposited several blocks inland from the beaches. My mother-in-law and her family rode out the storm in a rooming house 2 blocks from the beach, protected by pieces of the boardwalk that logged against the structure. Both the famed Steel Pier and Heinz Pier were partially destroyed by the hurricane with only the Steel Pier subsequently rebuilt. Rain totals of 7 inches occurred in Hartford Connecticut and the city of Bridgeport saw the greatest official total at 10.7 inches. Tobacco and fruit damage in Connecticut totaled to about $2 million, with similar overall damage costs occurring in Rhode Island. A total of 28 people died throughout New England as a result of the storm. On September 9, 1944, the storm that was officially upgraded to a tropical system would, in the next week result in one of the greatest destructive hurricanes on record for the resort beach towns of New Jersey.

Hurricane Katrina was a large Category 5 Atlantic Hurricane that caused more than 1,200 deaths and $125 billion in damage in August 2005, particularly hard hit was the city of New Orleans and the surrounding areas. It was at the time, the costliest tropical cyclone on record, and is now tied with 2017's Hurricane Harvey. The storm was the third major hurricane of the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season, and the fourth-most intense Atlantic hurricane to make landfall in the lower 48 states. Katrina began to develop on August 23, 2005 as a tropical depression. Early the following day, the depression intensified into a tropical storm as it headed generally westward toward Florida, strengthening into a hurricane two hours before making landfall at Hallandale Beach on August 25. After briefly weakening to tropical storm strength over southern Florida, Katrina emerged into the Gulf of Mexico on August 26 and began to rapidly intensify. The storm strengthened into a Category 5 hurricane over the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. It made landfall over southeast Louisiana and Mississippi on August 29. There is controversy to this day as to the strength of the storm when it came ashore. The National Hurricane Center determined that the system weakened as it crossed the coastline to a Catagory 3, yet evidence and surveys after the storm and the complete and utter destruction lead some to suggest that it was still a Cat 5.  Flooding, caused largely as a result of fatal engineering flaws in the flood protection system known as levees around the city of New Orleans, caused the greatest loss of life. Eventually, 80% of the city, as well as large tracts of neighboring parishes were under water for weeks. The flooding also destroyed most of New Orleans' transportation and communication facilities, leaving tens of thousands of people who had not evacuated the city prior to landfall stranded with little access to food, shelter or basic necessities. Many of those left behind were people of color and others in working class neighborhoods. The scale of the disaster in New Orleans provoked massive national and international response efforts; federal, local and private rescue operations evacuated displaced persons out of the city over the following weeks, but to many the response was too slow. Multiple investigations in the aftermath of the storm concluded that the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, that had designed and built the region's levees decades earlier, was responsible for the failure of the flood-control systems. The emergency response from federal, state and local governments was widely criticized, resulting in the resignations of FEMA director Michael Brown. Many government officials were criticized for their responses, especially the New Orleans Mayor and the Louisiana Governor, and President George W. Bush. The congressional elections the following year brought about a 31-seat swing from the GOP to the Democrats and control of the U. S. House of Representatives to the Dems. As a result of the Democratic victory, Nancy Pelosi, became the first woman and the first Californian elected House Speaker the change of control in the House was attributed by many, in part, to the inadequate response to Katrina the year before.

The Atlantic Hurricane season has woken up. We have Tropical Storms Fred and Grace getting ready to impact the US, while Hurricane Linda churns away in the Pacific. Back stateside, the severe weather threat is minimal this week. The Bootleg fire in Oregon is 100% contained.

Hurricane Belle was a Category 3 Atlantic Hurricane in August 1976. The storm, at one point, had winds around 120 miles per hour before it moved northward up the East Coast of the United State. The storm formed on August 6; it became Tropical Storm Belle on August 7. Later on, August 7, it became a hurricane.  On August 9, Belle's winds peaked at 120 miles per hour. Because of Hurricane Belle's proximity to the United State, hurricane watches were issued from Georgia all the way up to Maine. The hurricane brushed the North Carolina coast with. Unlike most storms that threaten the Northeastern United States, Belle didn't accelerate as it came closer to land. In the late-night hours of August 9, Belle came ashore as a minimal hurricane near Jones Beach on Long Island then crossed Long Island Sound and hit New England, with gusts hit 87 mph at Bridgeport, CT. Belle took twelve lives when it struck the East Coast of the United States. Damage was $100 million ore almost half a billion in 2021 dollars. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Atlantic Hurricane season is showing some signs of life. One area expected to become the next named storm, "Fred", is forecasted to tape shape over the next forty eight hours. Models indicate that it will head toward Florida. Different solutions put both coastlines in play. In the Pacific, Tropical Storm Kevin is churning away. The storm won't impact land. Severe weather is forecasted in portions of the upper midwest and into the Great Lakes today and tomorrow. Tuesday will be the best chances for storm storms and possible tornadoes. The IPCC has released their latest report.

The Atlantic Hurricane season is currently going slow. Only one area of interest while the Eastern Pacific is busy with two named storms and a possible third on the way. We share some exciting news as the hosts of B Squared are headed back to school.

Hurricane Elsa formed over the waters of the Atlantic Ocean early Friday just west of the Caribbean island of Barbados, one day after the system became the fifth-named storm of 2021. AccuWeather forecasters, having expected the cyclone to reach hurricane force, continued monitoring Elsa and predict it will approach the United States next week after it unleashes heavy rain, strong winds and stirs up dangerous seas around the Caribbean islands through this weekend.

We look back eight years ago at the El Reno tornado that changed how storms are researched, chased, and analyzed. The storm claimed the lives of three very well chasers, men who had made their careers out of keeping others safe. The El Reno tornado was a record setting storm in terms of wind speeds, width, and structure. The 2021 Atlantic Hurricane season has started and all is quiet (for now) while TS Blanca is churning away in the Eastern Pacific.

The Atlantic Hurricane season was going all out and then this week, things have died off completely. As of today, Sunday the 27th, there are no active storms or any areas that the NHC is looking at for development. The west coast is about to heat up while the east coast gets into a more typical fall like pattern.

Erick Brenstum joins us once again. Tonight he's taking a look at the record breaking Atlantic Hurricane season and of course the wildfires in the USA.

We've gone Greek! For the second time in history, the Atlantic Hurricane season has exhausted the list of names for storms and have now gone to the greek alphabet for any storms that will form for the rest of the season. Forest fires continue to rage out west and the smoke from those fires are making their way across the globe. Thunderstorms brought much needed rain to parts of Oregon and Washington this week. The rain helped clear out the bad air quality that had settled into the area.

As of the late night advisory from the National Hurricane Center Sunday, there is one hurricane, one tropical storm, two depressions, and 3 other areas of interest in the Atlantic Ocean. Most of them will disappear without any impacts, but a few could be the real thing. One of the storms expected to make a major impact is Tropical Storm Sally. The storm will be landfall as a hurricane Tuesday in Louisiana, Alabama, or Mississippi. A 170-miles of coast, including New Orleans and Mobile, should be preparing for life threatening conditions. Hurricane Paulette is impacting Bermuda on this Monday. And Tropical Depression Twenty will soon become Teddy, who in the coming days will strengthen to a major hurricane. In the days to come, it remains out at sea and away from any harmful impact. In the long term, the storm requires monitoring and tracking. This amount of activity in the Atlantic Ocean is a lot, but not completely unexpected. September 10 was the statistic peak of the Atlantic Hurricane season -- and September and October remain the most likely times for the Carolinas to see an impactful hurricane. The evidence is in the history books, which is where Chris Mulcahy from WCNC Charlotte's First Warn Storm Team went. He tells us that this time of year is when North Carolina and South Carolina sees the worst hurricanes.

Twelve years ago, we were jubilantly celebrating the Democratic Party's nomination of Barack Obama for the office of President of the United States. What was widely ignored was the red flag that had already popped up, warning that his administration wasn't going to be the progressive dream we'd been led to believe: Joe Biden. By choosing the Senator from Delaware as his VP, we could have seen that it was all headed sharply to the right. Now, with Joe Biden in his late 70's and leading the Democratic Presidential ticket, we look for what the future might entail, and… we have Kamala Harris, a notoriously centrist Attorney General being placed next in line for the top office. We discuss THIS red flag, and what it might mean for the future. Then, we discuss how the horrors of the climate crisis aren't even getting major national coverage, as Iowa suffers hurricane-strength winds, the Atlantic Hurricane season is on record pace and California has its strongest tornado in history – MADE OF FIRE. Mama Nature ain't happy, and there soon won't be ANYBODY happy. Finally, we talk about how the tremendous financial burden all of this climate-crisis-induced destruction is being put on the doorstep of the worst culprits: Big Oil.

The 2020 Atlantic Hurricane season starts on Monday, but we've already gone through two named storms and all eyes are now turning to the Gulf of Mexico where Pacific Tropical Storm Amanda is slowly weakening. There is a chance that what ever remains of her will enter into the Gulf of Mexico and could reform. That has us thinking, should we still call her Amanda or does she become Cristobal? How about Amanda-Cristobal or Amandobal? Central Oregon got rocked by supercells yesterday. Lots of wind and hail damage, one possible tornado, and the first ever "enhanced" categorical rating was issued by SPC for Oregon and Washington.

We celebrate our 100th episode of B Squared: Your Weekly Weather Podcast. NOAA issued the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane outlook forecast and we break down the official first forecast. Giant hail fell in Texas and the weather conditions must have been amazing to support such a large hail stone. Thank you for listening each week and we look forward to another 100 episodes!

COVID-19 is an unprecedented crisis; but climate change brings us challenges that we do know how to build resilience for. Ahead of the next Atlantic Hurricane season, the IDB discusses with Marla the economics of climate change, how to minimize impacts when disasters hit, why climate-adaptive infrastructure is cheaper in the long-run, and the impacts […]

We interview Dr. Shaoli Chaudhuri, a resident at Columbia Medical Center in Manhattan, about what she’s seeing in the Covid-19 epicenter as doctors treat a growing number of patients with the virus - and healthcare workers themselves are getting sick.  An astonishing 6.6 million people filed for unemployment benefits in the US last week, and there’s a growing concern that coronavirus tests aren’t as accurate as many thought.  And in headlines: four major storms predicted for the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane season, lock up your Zoom, and Jeff Sessions clings on to a fake friend.

CBS News reporter, Janet Shamlian, reports on how it's being felt in Palm Beach County in Florida. Hurricane Dorian remains powerful and destructive as it hovers over Grand Bahama island - but is showing signs of slight weakening. The National Hurricane Center in Miami said in the last hour that the Category 4 storm's maximum sustained winds fell to 240 kph - down a touch from 250 kph earlier today. On Sunday, Dorian blasted the Bahamas with maximum sustained winds of close to 300kph and gusts up to 354 kph - tying the record for the most powerful Atlantic hurricane to ever make landfall. The storm continued to creep westward at just 2kph.  Dorian is expected to move “dangerously close” to the Florida east coast late Monday through Wednesday evening and then move north to coastal Georgia and South Carolina on Wednesday night and Thursday.   Guest: Ross Hull Global News meteorologist

Each year, June 1st marks the first day of the Atlantic Hurricane season; and while modern technology has helped reduced the catastrophic destruction of these storms, on the small barrier island of Pawley's Island, South Carolina, locals believe it is the appearance of an apparition known as "The Gray Man" who truly warns them of impending disaster.

We look back at a very active week in the Plains and across the nation. Several PDS Tornado Watches were issued and almost 150 tornados were confirmed by NWS offices. Bonnie talks about going through two PDS events this week and we look at the storms that impacted Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, and California. NOAA issued the 2019 Atlantic Hurricane season outlook, we take a look at the chances of a normal season.

Show Notes: We will take a look at what has been, up to this point, a very slow Atlantic Hurricane season. But as anyone along the Gulf Coast will tell you, things can change quickly! On this episode, we visit with Frank Revitte with the National Weather Service to discuss some of the factors involved in our season so far. Laura Mellem with the ‘NOLA Ready' program out of New Orleans also joins us on this episode to talk preparedness.

Last month, the 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season finally came to a close. From June 1 to Nov. 30, South Carolinians were encouraged by SCEMD and other state agencies to be on high alert, especially after the severe storm impacts the state received during the 2015 and 2016 seasons. Now that hurricane season has wrapped up, we called on John Qualiariello, a Columbia-based meteorologist for the National Weather Service, to reflect. “2017 turned out to be a very active season. We had 16 named storms. 10 of those were hurricanes, and 6 of them actually turned out to be major hurricanes, which are category 3 or higher,” Qualiariello said. According to Qualiariello, 2017 is the second season in a row to have above normal tropical hurricane activity, both in terms of the total number of named storms and the number of major hurricanes that occurred. 2016 represented fairly similar activity with 15 named storms and 7 hurricanes, including 4 major hurricanes. The biggest weather-related threat to

The Atlantic Hurricane season started a few days ago, and this year is predicted to be bad, but disasters, whether natural or man made can strike at any time.  In this episode my husband and I discuss the CDC's disaster preparation recommendations, and add a few recommendations of our own.

Today we discuss pre-season storms in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific, an active Southern Pacific cyclone season, and predictions for the 2017 Atlantic hurricane season.
