While Hurricane Season started on May 15 in the Eastern Pacific Basin and on June 1 in the Central Pacific and Atlantic basins, the season is off to a quiet start with no tropical cyclones in any basin, nor are any storms to form in any basin for at least the next 7 days.

According to the National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida, and their latest Tropical Outlook report, no tropical cyclone formation is expected in each of the three basins they monitor for at least the next 7 days.

Experts believe it will be a relatively quiet season in the Pacific but a hyper-active, potentially record-breaking one in the Atlantic. Forecasters with the Central Pacific Hurricane Center announced in May that they expect a below-normal season with only 1-4 storms, below the usual 4-5.  At an event held in Washington DC by NOAA, forecasters there said they expect 17-25 named storms in the Atlantic basin compared to the usual 14.
