Today marks the first day of Hurricane Season! 🌀

Hurricane Season runs from June 1st through November 30th with “peak” season being around mid September.

NOAA is calling for a BELOW AVERAGE season this year with between 8 and 14 names storms, 3 to 6 reaching Hurricane status, and 1 to 3 of those reaching Major Hurricane status (category 3 or higher).
BELOW AVERAGE doesn’t mean storms won’t happen, they will.

Recognize any of these names? The 2026 name list is the same list used in 2020. Laura was replaced with Leah. There are 6 name lists that the World Meteorological Organization decides on and they rotate.

No tropical development is expected over the next 7 days but that doesn’t mean you can’t prepare NOW! Make an emergency kit for you and your family (water, food, first aid, batteries, cash, pet supplies), secure your important documents incase your home does sustain damage, plan out a potential evacuation route, and STAY INFORMED!

OKLAHOMA: Severe Weather is returning this afternoon and overnight.

A level 2 slight risk has been expanded for areas north of Oklahoma City. Very low tornado risk. Our biggest concern will be up to golf ball sized hail and winds pushing 70 miles per hour.

Storms should move out of central Oklahoma between midnight and 1am.

Wow! First severe thunderstorm watch for parts of Oregon and Idaho in 648 days or 700 days!

A RARE day of severe weather is expected in the Pacific Northwest TODAY. Washington, Idaho, Oregon has potential to see hail, strong damaging winds, and a possible tornado. A chance of severe weather is not a guarantee you see severe weather. Storms upwards of this potential aren’t common in this portion of the country, but they still can happen. Stay weather aware! ⛈️🌪️☀️

NOAA is calling for a BELOW AVERAGE Hurricane Season due to El Niño. But below average doesn’t mean storms won’t happen. Last year, no hurricanes made landfall in the United States. It only takes one storm for a season to be a memorable one. 🌀

Early model guidance shows an increase in severe weather potential as we enter the first few weeks of June. Is this out of the ordinary? Not really. Climatology tells us that severe weather can essentially happen ANYWHERE in June, some areas just more likely and expected than others. ⛈️🌪️

NOAA is calling for a BELOW AVERAGE Hurricane Season due to a developing and intensifying El Niño.

El Niño typically means more wind shear in the Caribbean and Atlantic which makes tropical cyclone development harder.

Calling for 8-14 named storms with 3-6 hurricanes and 1-3 being major hurricanes.

Atlantic hurricane season starts June 1st!

May is peak severe weather season for many. While severe weather can happen anytime and anywhere, the month of May typically sees more action widespread across the country 🌪️⛈️

Did you know there’s a chance of a tornado in some part of the country on every single day?! Check out this climatology set showing the probability of tornadoes all 365 days of the year! This dataset shows how certain areas have higher probabilities than others during certain times of the year! 🌪️

The Lone Star State will continue to face days of rain potential as we go into the month of June. While rain is needed, a lot of rain in a short amount of time will lead to flash flooding concerns. 🌧️☔️
