Evening Edition: Record Number Of Hurricanes Predicted For This Year

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is predicting an 'above-normal' hurricane season saying there could be as many as 25 named storms, the most they have ever predicted. NOAA attributes the prediction to a number of factors including warmer than normal ocean temperatures in the Atlantic Ocean and La Nina conditions in the Pacific. The expected heavier than normal hurricane season comes at a time when the director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is warning the agency could be facing a budget shortfall this year. FOX’s Eben Brown speaks with Mike Brennan, National Hurricane Center Director, Erik Hooks, Deputy Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and Florida Congressman Jared Moskowitz about this upcoming hurricane season, the advancements in safety warnings and the need for more funding for disaster relief.
