The February forecast for 2004 Atlantic hurricane activity was issued by Tropical Storm Risk, the London-based operation led by Benfield Hazard Research Centre of University College, which describes itself as a consortium including climate physicists, meteorologists and statisticians, who are experts in insurance, risk management and seasonal climate forecasting.
TSR said it has slightly increased its forecast since January and now anticipates a 72 percent likelihood of an above-average season, a 21 percent probability of a near-normal season, and only a 7 percent chance of a below-normal season.
