The hurricane season for the Atlantic basin may be slow in 2015, an expert from the Cuban Institute of Meteorology (INSMET) told the press today in Havana.<\/p>\n

During this year\u2019s season, that will begin on June 1st and end in November 30, eight storms are expected to form in the Caribbean and the Golf of Mexico, three of which may reach the hurricane category.<\/p>\n

These estimates are similar to the ones released by the prestigious Colorado State University forecast, which predicted a total of seven storms, including three hurricanes, and one major hurricane (category 3-4-5).<\/p>\n

The Colorado State Univeristy report<\/a>, published in early April, anticipated that this will be one of the least active seasons since the middle of the 20th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough we foresee a low level of activity, Cuba could still be affected by one of these storms, and we must be alert and ready to face contingencies,\u201d the abovementioned Cuban expert said in an interview with a local news agency.<\/p>\n

The names assigned by the World Meteorological Organization to this year\u2019s hurricanes are Ana, Bill, Claudette, Danny, Erika, Fred, Grace, Henri, Ida, Joaqu\u00edn, Kate, Larry, Mindy, Nicholas, Odette, Peter, Rose, Sam, Teresa, V\u00edctor and Wanda.<\/p>\n

The last hurricane path that crossed the Cuban territory was that of Hurricane Sandy\u2019s in October 2012.<\/p>\n
