Gulf Coast Braces for Third Major Hurricane in Two Months Amid Warming Atlantic

The Gulf Coast is bracing for its third major hurricane in two months, with the latest storm expected to strike near New Orleans in the coming days. Despite early predictions of a historically violent hurricane season, the season initially appeared quiet, but the warming Atlantic has led to a sudden surge in activity. The two previous storms caused significant damage, especially east of New Orleans. This sudden shift serves as a stark reminder of how climate change can quickly alter weather patterns, with more storms likely to develop in the Atlantic in the near future.
