Nah, that's not gonna happen, especially this year. You know why? Hypercanes require extremely warm oceans of 122+ F which might be caused by supervolcanic eruptions, extensive global warming or a large comet or asteroid impact. The most powerful hurricane ever in the Atlantic was Hurricane Wilma, which reached 185 mph and a record 882 mbar pressure. Now think about it: Hypercanes are storms that reach wind speeds of 500 mph! That's a really massive difference in strength, which makes hypercanes absolutely impossible to happen in the Atlantic or anywhere else on Earth, unless the very unlikely/impossible events happen (supervolcanic eruptions, extensive global warming or a large comet or asteroid impact). They also grow to a very big size, and can completely destroy everything in their path if they strike land! So, why would you wish for a hypercane to form in the Atlantic this year? Seems more like a doom/deathcast to me...
