Abstract
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is nearing completion of the post-analysis of the 2024 Atlantic and eastern North Pacific basin tropical cyclones. The annual NHC Verification Report uses the post-analyzed information to verify the accuracy and biases of NHC forecasts and real-time model guidance, and the 2024 report will be available in the spring on NHC’s website - https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/verification/. This short review provides some of the preliminary highlights of NHC’s 2024 forecast performance in the Atlantic basin, which is based on a combination of post-analyzed and real time best track data. If interested in the forecast verification for individual storms, please refer to Tropical Cyclone Reports (as completed) at https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/tcr/index.php.
