The News-Press recently published a report on the 2010 hurricane predictions, that was released by the forecast team at Colorado State University.  The Colorado State University team is led by pioneer forecaster William Gray, who has been forecasting hurricanes for 27 years.  The team predicted that we would have an above-average 2010 hurricane season.

Overall, the CSU prediction called for 15 named storms, 8 hurricanes and 4 major hurricanes.  This report is based on the Atlantic basin, which includes all tropical storms and hurricanes in the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico.

A tropical storm becomes a hurricane when its sustained wind speeds surpass 74 mph.
