CSU forecast calls for near-normal hurricane season

Colorado State University (CSU) scientists Philip Klotzbach and
William Gray have predicted the 2016 Atlantic basin hurricane
season will see near-average activity, after two years of calling
for below-average forecasts.
The CSU long-range forecast called for 13 named storms, 6
hurricanes and 2 major hurricanes this year, including hurricane
Alex that formed in January, outside the June-November season.
The median for the period from 1981-2010 has been 6.5 hurricanes
and 2 major hurricanes.
