Hurricane Watch PLUS Accumulated Cyclone Energy 2020 Year to Date (global and per basin)

 First up, from the National Hurricane Center, tropical storm Eta is expected to re-intensify to hurricane strength as it continues its meander:

And from Ryan Maye, now chief scientist at NOAA:

2020 Accumulated Cyclone Energy [ACE]

Basin	Current YTD	Normal YTD	% of Normal YTD	Yearly Climo*	2019**
Northern Hemisphere	391.422	513	76%	568	586
Western N Pacific	134.1	268	50%	302	275

*Climatology from historical 1981-2010 Tropical cyclone best track datasets
^**Preliminary values from real-time ATCF advisories and will become final when best-tracks are available from JTWC and NHC after post-season analysis Small differences have been found in previous years between real-time and best-track ACE.
