Today marks the official start of the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season, which runs through Nov. 30. Forecasters with NOAA NWS National Hurricane Center are predicting a below-normal hurricane season for the Atlantic basin this year. NOAA’s outlook predicts a 35% chance of a near-normal season, a 10% chance of an above-normal season, and a 55% chance of a below-normal season.

No matter the forecast for your area, remember: It only takes one storm to disrupt a community. Landfalls and impacts are determined by short-term weather patterns, so early preparation is essential for everyone.
