Although still a few days out from the OFFICIAL Start of Hurricane Season for the Eastern Pacific Basin (Season always starts on May 15th), there are already several 'Invests' that are up. One of which (90E) has several of the computer models developing into a tropical cyclone of at least Tropical Storm status, and 2 of which develop into a Cat 1 and Cat 3 Hurricane, respectively.

It appears that although the Atlantic Basin will return to Normal (or slightly below normal) activity for 2012, the Eastern and Central Pacific Basins might very well see an Slight Increase in activity this hurricane season, as we seem trending towards weak to moderate El Nino conditions in the Pacific.
