The climate pattern is expected to continue and strengthen through the peak months of the hurricane season, August through October.<\/p>\n
Strong El Ni\u00f1o conditions are generally associated with increased wind shear over the Atlantic, which can make it more difficult for tropical systems to develop and strengthen.<\/p>\n
At the same time, some conditions remain favorable for hurricane development. Atlantic sea-surface temperatures are expected to remain slightly warmer than normal, while some other atmospheric conditions could support tropical activity, forecasters said. <\/p>\n
Those competing factors are part of the reason NOAA continues to emphasize that the seasonal forecast cannot predict whether a particular location will be hit by a hurricane.<\/p>\n
