In response to these inquiries, the Secretary of the Navy (Semar) of Mexico has unveiled its forecasts, shedding light on what the upcoming season may entail.

Season Commencement:

The initiation of the hurricane season varies between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. According to insights shared by experts from the Mexican Navy Secretariat, the Pacific Ocean is slated to witness the onset of climatic phenomena as early as May 15. In contrast, the Atlantic will need to wait until June 1 for the arrival of hurricanes.

A staggering estimation suggests a total of up to 37 cyclones, with 17 potentially escalating into hurricanes. This projection underscores the potential significance of the upcoming season.

Additionally, Semar has foreseen above-normal rainfall across a majority of the country during the hurricane season. This forecast indicates a likelihood of more abundant precipitation than usual, warranting heightened vigilance and preparedness measures.

Mitigation Strategies:

Amidst the anticipation of heightened activity during the hurricane season, it is imperative for individuals and communities to prioritize safety and preparedness. Semar advocates for proactive measures to mitigate risks associated with these natural events.

Key recommendations include:

  1. Stay Informed: Remain abreast of developments through the National Meteorological System’s warnings and advisories.
  2. Emergency Preparedness: Equip households with essential emergency kits, ensuring readiness to navigate potential disruptions.
  3. Property Maintenance: Undertake precautionary measures such as tree pruning and securing loose objects to minimize potential hazards.

By adhering to these guidelines and fostering a culture of preparedness, individuals can bolster resilience and safeguard against the potential impacts of the 2024 hurricane season.
