John Gray has predicted 17 named storms, 5 of which will be major hurricanes, for the Atlantic Hurricane Season.

He does pretty well, but last year was an aberration due to an unexpected El Nino. And they’re thinking we’ll get a La Nina season this year, and that will feed hurricane formation.

I’ll predict 16 named storms, 5 of which will be major, and we’ll see 3 hurricane landfalls on the US, only one of which will be a strong Cat 2.

That’s a total guess on my part. So don’t go raising insurance rates just because of what I am guessing.
