a Hurricane Season during the holiday season? Maybe, if water temps stay high.

Doug McIntyre discusses the possibility that although the hurricane season is set to end on November 30, the warm temperatures in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, which exceed 86F, could lead to more major storms beyond that date. Recent hurricanes Helene and Milton have already caused significant damage in the U.S., resulting in 100 deaths and billions in damages. Given these conditions, officials may consider extending next year’s hurricane season to mid- or late-December to account for potential late-season storms.
