2062 Atlantic Hurricane Season

The 2062 Atlantic Hurricane season was a hyperactive hurricane season with 29 named storms.

The hurricane season started out on May 4th as Tropical Storm Ava formed in the middle of the Atlantic, not affecting any land. Only 2 named storms didn't affect any land, Ava and Jase.

Hurricane Bubba was the first major hurricane, kicking off the thick of the season. The hurricane formed on June 2nd, and made landfall in Puerto Rico on June 5th after rapidly intensifying into a Cat 3 and slowly intensifying until the 5th., killing 23 people with 150mph winds. The storm, disrupted by the mountainous terrain, died off within days. The season had many other major storms, including Category 6 Hurricane Megan, with winds sustained at 235mph and gusts up to 275mph, making landfall in Mobile, AL, killing 3,213 people.

Seasonal Forcasts
Since 1984, forecasts of hurricane activity have been issued before each hurricane season by noted hurricane expert Dr. William M. Gray and his associates at Colorado State University (CSU), by forecaster Dr. Colby J. Sheehan and his associates at Auburn University (AU), and separately by forecasters with the U.S. Government's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). According to CSU, the average season between 1950 and 2000 had 9.6 tropical storms, 5.9 hurricanes, and 2.3 major hurricanes, which are Category 3 or higher on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale. A normal season, as defined by NOAA, has 12.1 named storms, of which 6.4 reach hurricane strength and 2.7 become major hurricanes.

CSU's first prediction for the season was 15 total storms, 10 hurricanes, and 3 major hurricanes. AU's prediction was 23 total storms, 15 hurricanes, and 7 major hurricanes, while NOAA predicted 17 named storms, 9 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes. The new rules stated by the North Atlantic Weather Treaty (2053) says the first prediction is the official one, and any others are "non-official".

Tropical Storm Ava
Tropical Storm Ava was a Tropical Storm that formed in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, 150 miles southeast of Bermuda. The storm's top wind speed was 60mph, and the pressure was 990 mbar. The storm turned northward, dissipating after 4 days.
