Eastern Pacific 2011 Hurricane Forecast Including Todos Santos

On May 19, NOAA release their forecast for the 2011 Eastern Pacific Hurricane season – this includes Todos Santos and Baja California Sur. Here’s a quick quote:

Climate patterns similar to those expected this year have historically produced a wide range of activity. Allowing for uncertainties, we estimate a 70% chance of occurrence for each of the following ranges of activity this season:

• 9-15 named storms,
• 5-8 hurricanes,
• 1-3 major hurricanes,
• An ACE range 45%-105% of the median.

The seasonal activity is expected to fall within these ranges in 7 out of 10 seasons with similar climate conditions and uncertainties to those expected this year. They do not represent the total possible ranges of activity seen in past similar years.

The 1981-2010 averages for the eastern Pacific hurricane season are 15-16 named storms, 8-9 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes.
