Colin McCarthy(@US_Stormwatch):I can’t get over how active this hurricane season has been in the Eastern Pacific. It’s already the basin’s most active season ever recorded, and we have another Category 4 hurricane on the way this weekend. There’s also a growing signal for another major hurricane (Category 3+) by late October. We could end up with 10 or more Category 4 or 5 hurricanes in a single season. This is truly a generational hurricane season, one we may not see surpassed for decades, all while the Atlantic is on track for its second-quietest season on record. A consequence of this year's record strong El Niño.
