The official start of the 2025 tropical storm and hurricane season is right around the corner and many forecasters are predicting another active year. Tropical meteorologists at Colorado State University released a prediction last month of 17 named storms, with nine of them becoming hurricanes. The forecast also states that four of the hurricanes will be major, which is a Category 3 or higher.

Based on the 30-year average from 1991 to 2020, the number of named storms is 14, with seven of them becoming hurricanes. There is also an average of three major hurricanes.
