Rare Atlantic Niña and Super El Niño may suppress hurricanes, lowering US landfall risk

A rare Atlantic Niña is developing alongside a strong Super El Niño event. These ocean patterns may suppress hurricane formation in the Atlantic Ocean. Increased wind shear and sinking air create an atmospheric shield against storms. However, experts caution that a quieter season does not eliminate hurricane risks. Residents in vulnerable areas should continue their normal hurricane preparations.
