The Americas have been told to brace for an ‘extremely active’ hurricane season this year. Hurricane researchers at Colorado State University (CSU) in the US are predicting 11 hurricanes in 2024, spurred on by a hotter Atlantic and a switch to ‘La Niña’ conditions. This is the most hurricanes ever predicted by the expert unit since it began issuing an April outlook in 1995. Researchers stress there’s still a high degree of uncertainty about how the season will unfold, but are urging residents along the US coastline and in the Caribbean to prepare. “It takes only one storm near you to make this...

Melting ice sheets could cause its collapse - but when or how likely is it to happen...
