Despite El Niño, Atlantic Ocean Keeps Cranking Out Tropical Cyclones
Dennis Mersereau · 09/08/15 02:35PMThis Saturday is the climatological peak of hurricane season in the Atlantic Ocean. It’s been a weird year with about seven storms so far, and we still have more than two months until it’s over. The season could have been worse if it weren’t for El Niño conditions out in the Pacific Ocean, which saves the butt of many coastal residents around the Atlantic during this time of the year.
