It's almost that time of year again- Hurricane season is right around the corner. WeatherNation wants YOU to get prepared. Hurricane season "officially" begins on May 15 for the eastern Pacific basin, and June 1 for the Atlantic basin. BUT, storms can, and have formed outside of those climatologically more common dates. On Thursday, May 9 John Van Pelt  visited the NOAA Hurricane Awareness Tour live on WeatherNation to get ready for the season. John spoke with hurricane experts and the National Hurricane Center, Emergency Managers, Hurricane Hunters are more with information to help us better understand all the risk that hurricane season can bring.   https://youtu.be/6FKO2Q4jJRE

We expect NOAA to release their seasonal outlook on May 23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fdDtsdiOfA   There are currently no areas to monitor in the tropics for potential tropical development.
