PENSACOLA, Fla. – Record high ocean temperatures and the development of a climate phenomenon known as La Nina will keep the Atlantic hurricane seasonon track to be the busiest since 2005, government forecasters said Thursday.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration slightly lowered the outlook it released in May, but an above-normal season was still expected, said Gerry Bell, lead seasonal hurricane forecaster at NOAA's Climate Prediction Center in Washington. From the Associated Press.
