2020 Hurricane Season Outlook

An above-normal 2020 Atlantic hurricane season is expected, according to forecasters with
NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, a division of the National Weather Service.

“The outlook predicts a 60% chance of an above-normal season, a 30% chance of a near-normal season and only a 10% chance of a below-normal season.”

When catastrophes strike, high volumes of claims can flow in quickly. That’s where GRS Catastrophe
