Today we are launching a brand new podcast series, called the Claims Journal Podcast! In this inaugural episode, editor Don Jergler sits down with AccuWeather Chief Meteorologist Jonathan Porter to unpack the high-stakes forecast for the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season. Will this year top 2024’s destructive run of major storms? Porter reveals AccuWeather’s projections of 13–18 named storms, a looming La Niña threat, and the US regions most at risk — including a sharp warning for the Carolina coast, Gulf states, and even parts of the Northeast. From record-warm ocean temperatures to the rising danger of early-season storms in May, this episode delivers essential intel for insurers, businesses, and coastal residents bracing for what could be another costly hurricane season. 🌊⚠️
