The 2026 hurricane season is unusually uneven, with a quiet Atlantic and an active Pacific Ocean. While the Atlantic has seen only one tropical storm and no hurricanes, the Pacific has experienced 18 storms, including several hurricanes, driven by a strong El Niño and environmental factors such as droughts and dry air. The season's inactivity in the Atlantic is attributed to high wind shear and climate conditions, making it one of the quietest since 1914, whereas the Pacific's activity is driven by warm waters and favorable conditions for storm development.
