Hurricane Season Starts Sunday—Here’s What to Know

The 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season officially kicks off this Sunday, June first, and runs through November thirtieth. Forecasters expect a normal to above-normal season, with thirteen to nineteen named storms, six to ten hurricanes, and three to five major hurricanes likely to form. While there’s a medium chance of neutral El Niño conditions, which typically support average storm activity, warmer ocean temperatures could fuel stronger storms. What does this mean for Belize? It’s impossible to predict exactly where or when a storm will hit, but officials stress that everyone should be ready. Whether we face one storm or none, preparation is key.
