Washington Post: U.S. government forecasters expect a near-normal Atlantic hurricane season, after three relatively slow years. But they also say climate conditions that influence storm development are making it difficult to predict how many hurricanes and tropical storms will arise over the next six months. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administrations outlook Friday called for a near-normal season with 10 to 16 named storms, with four to eight hurricanes and one to four major ones with winds reaching...

Environmental News Network: The repeated storms which battered Europe's Atlantic coastline during the winter of 2013/14 were the most energetic in almost seven decades, new research has shown. And they were part of a growing trend in stormy conditions which scientists say has the potential to dramatically change the equilibrium state of beaches along the western side of the continent, leading to permanent changes in beach gradient, coastal alignment and nearshore bar position. In a study accepted for publication in Geophysical...

Gerd Masselink, professor of coastal geomorphology at Plymouth University School of Marine Science and Engineering, UK, and colleagues report in Geophysical Research Letters that they decided to switch focus from sea...

Climate Central: Storms have returned to California, bringing with them much-needed rain and snow after February came up disappointingly dry. But while this influx of moisture is expected to surpass storms earlier this winter, it won't end the drought and could bring a downside of flooding and mudslides, experts warn. "We will have to see how it plays out to sort through the details, but it is one of the bigger events of the season,' California state climatologist Michael Anderson said. Been awhile since we've...
