Tropical Storm Edouard and a Quiet Season | Jacksonville News

Tropical Storm Edouard is barreling toward western Louisiana and eastern Texas, packing a punch with inland flooding as its main threat — while Florida braces for heavy rain from the remnants of Dolly. Despite five named storms so far this season, they’ve all been weak and short-lived, leaving Atlantic hurricane activity at just 10% of average — and if it ended today, it’d be one of the quietest on record. El Niño’s cooling influence, despite warm ocean temps, has kept storm energy low, and forecasters expect calm to continue. The next named storm? Fay — but for now, stay weather-aware: things might stay unusually quiet. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
