• Below-Average Atlantic Hurricane Season Expected (citrusindustry.net) — For Cedar Key residents, Colorado State University’s early outlook suggests a slightly below-average 2026 Atlantic hurricane season, with lower-than-normal odds of a major landfall on both sides of our coast. Cedar Key is used as the dividing line between East Coast and Gulf Coast risk zones, so locals can watch how updated forecasts refine those probabilities into summer.
