The Atlantic hurricane season has officially started, and the International Research Institute for Climate and Society has issued its updated seasonal hurricane forecast for the region. The results continue to indicate that an
above-normal season is very likely. This could spell trouble for highly vulnerable Caribbean nations such as Haiti, still reeling from the effects of a 7.0 magnitude earthquake on January 12, 2010. On top of this, other forecasts point to increased thunderstorm activity for the region as well.
The IRI's hurricane forecast probabilities are the strongest the institution has ever issued at this point in the season, eclipsed only by a late-season forecast during record-setting 2005. The latest numbers call for a
50% chance of above-normal activity, 35% chance of near-normal activity and a 15% chance for below-normal activity. put* in simpler terms, this means that the chance of having an above-normal year is more than three times the chance of having a below-normal one

Notar como elevaron el porcentaje de 45 a 50%, con respecto a la probabilidad de que la actividad sea superior a la normal en la temporada y bajaron de 20 a 15% la probabilidad de actividad inferior (el rango normal lo dejaron en 35%).
La pregunta (mía) es:
1) donde se forma el próximo ciclón tropical (o algún intento de ello) y como se llama??
