In May 2024, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicted an 85% chance of above-normal activity for the Atlantic hurricane season. This marked the fifth consecutive year with such a prediction, potentially making 2024 the eighth year in the past decade to record above-normal activity.
