According to this data, the El Nino is expected to persist through the spring, when it is expected to weaken. This could limit activity for the early part of the season, like I've said - but I'm confident that it will be at least an average hurricane season next year in the Atlantic. Most inactive periods were followed by active periods. The 1998 Atlantic season came back strong after an El Nino the year before, with 14 named storms and 10 hurricanes. It started slowly, without a single storm forming until July 27. 2004 has a similar case, and it was followed by the most active year on record.
