The 2012 Atlantic hurricane season is projected to be less active than in recent years with 11 tropical storms, six of which will intensify into hurricanes, according to Andover, Md.-based private forecaster Weather Services International. The 2012 forecast numbers are slightly below the adjusted long-term average for 1950-2011 of 12 tropical storms, seven hurricanes and three intense hurricanes. WSI’s outlook for the season is in line with one issued earlier by the team of forecasters at Colorado State University. The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 through Nov. 30.
