2024 Atlantic storm season forecast predicts heightened hurricane risk.
The Atlantic storm season forecast for 2024 predicts heightened risk, prompting meteorologists to monitor early signs of potential hurricanes. Satellite images are used to forecast storm formation, incorporating real-time data on humidity levels, cloud patterns, and atmospheric pressure. Key conditions for hurricane formation include the storm's position at least 5 degrees from the equator, warm sea surface temperatures of at least 26.5 degrees Celsius, atmospheric instability, moisture, and low vertical wind shear. Improved forecasting and early warnings are crucial for public preparation during intense hurricane seasons.
