"It likely will not be as active and destructive as 2005 and slightly below what other groups have predicted," said Mark Saunders, with the Tropical Storm Risk group that includes Benfield Hazard Research Centre.
TSR's start-of-season forecast is predicting four tropical storm strikes on the United States of which two will be hurricanes.
