Experts Predict Above-Average 2025 Hurricane Season for Texas

The 2025 Atlantic Hurricane Season is just over a week away, which means people along the Gulf Coast need to start preparing. Hurricane season starts on June 1st and runs through November 30th each season, and that means that folks in the Southern United States will have all eyes on the tropics for the next six months.

If you have ever dealt with a tropical storm or a hurricane, then you know how serious and damaging these storms can be. You are also aware that these storms can pop up in the Gulf at a moment's notice and head directly toward the coastline.

Last year, we saw 11 hurricanes form, and five of them became major hurricanes. Having a plan in place is key when it comes to Hurricane Season. That was last year, but now what about this year?
