El Niño Blamed for Vanishing Atlantic Hurricane Season
Original: How El Niño Made the Atlantic Hurricane Season Disappear
The Atlantic hurricane season has been remarkably quiet, and meteorologists are pointing to El Niño as the main cause. The climate pattern strengthens winds high over the tropical Atlantic, tearing storms apart before they can develop. Forecasts had warned of an active season, so the calm has drawn attention from scientists and the public alike.
Why now: An unusually calm hurricane season contradicts earlier forecasts, prompting interest in El Niño's suppressing effects.
