MEXICO BEACH, Fla. — Forecasters with NOAA say the Atlantic Hurricane season which begins today will be busier than usual. It's the seventh year in a row there's been an above average hurricane season. That's especially a concern for people who live in the Southeast and along the Gulf coast.
But the threat of hurricanes, climate change and rising seas is not discouraging development along the coasts. One case in point: Mexico Beach, a town on the Florida Panhandle almost totally destroyed by a hurricane three years ago, is coming back.
