There’s potentially good news for Florida and coastal U.S. cities this year ahead of the upcoming hurricane season. While specific forecasts for the number of hurricanes can’t be made yet, early outlooks suggest it could be less active than last year.
But this season comes with a big caveat, as Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency takes aim at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration budget. Cuts there could impact how forecasters warn about potential storms or get people out of areas in the line of fire.
