    Batten down the Hatches! This can only mean an above average season.
    It is funny how they cannot predict an accurate track for a hurricane that has formed, cannot predict with certainty if and when a tornado will form, cannot predict local weather past a few hours, and yet they feel they should predict the hurricane season and we should all buy in.
    The previous article states that Congress is looking for more funding for better weather research. Start by eliminating this waste of a prediction and use the money for better research. Also, why isn’t Budweiser a sponsor for weather research?

      To be fair, predicting the likelihood of a hurricane over multiple months is a bit easier than highly local things like rain and if a tornado will form.

      It’s kinda like how it’s easier to say that one of someone’s six kids will break a dish in the next month than predict that a specific kid will do it tomorrow.

          Make it up as the “Fake News” does every single day of the week. Colorado State has been so wrong so many times, they are just riding their government grant.

            Can you post Colorado States record for , say , the last 25 years or so , so , we can make assessment as to their successful prediction rate for our selve , as opposed to a blathering rant. Thx Agent.

    Dan, I have been observing their predictions on this forum for many years. As Bob says, do your own research. You will be disappointed in their success rate.
