AccuWeather Forecasts Four Major Atlantic Hurricanes This Year

摘要

Forecasters at AccuWeather.com expect another active hurricane season this year, with 16 named storms, including eight hurricanes, four of them major (Category 3 or higher), to form in the Atlantic Basin, with as many as three hurricanes making landfall in the United States. The 2013 Atlantic hurricane season, which officially begins June 1, “may begin quickly this year,” with tropical storm formation possible in the Caribbean before July, according to the forecasters. And conditions may be setting the stage for stronger storms than were seen in 2012, they said.
