Hurricane Season begins June 1
Posted on May 28th, 2026
Forecasters with NOAA’s National Weather Service are predicting a below-normal hurricane season for the Atlantic basin this year. NOAA’s outlook for the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season, which runs June 1 to November 30, predicts a 35% chance of a near-normal season, a 10% chance of an above-normal season, and a 55% chance of a below-normal season.
 
The agency is forecasting a total of 8-14 named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher). Of those, 3-6 are forecast to become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including 1-3 major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5 with winds of 111 mph or higher). NOAA has a 70% confidence in these ranges. An average season has 14 named storms with seven hurricanes, including three major hurricanes. 
 
Be Prepared, folks!
 
Email Issues

Our service provider is working with these services to resolve the transmission issues.

BHA Elections in Final Stage
Posted on May 5th, 2026
The Elections Committee has accepted all nominations as of April 30, and the final ballot for this year's elections are now set.
 
Because no more than one candidate is available for the election at any position, the requirement for voting will be waived.  A motion will be offered at the June 13 meeting of the membership to accept all candidates as elected to their respective positions.
 
You can keep up to date with this year's election process on the Elections 2026 page of the website.  (Only BHA members are allowed access to the Elections page.)
