NEW YORK - Another sign the Atlantic hurricane season, already on a record pace, will become more frenetic when it reaches its peak in a few weeks is all but locked into place across the Pacific.

If a La Nina were to form, its impacts would extend far beyond the hurricane season, however. When the surface of the Pacific cools, it creates a reaction in the atmosphere that alters weather patterns around the world. "The chances of La Nina this coming fall have nudged slightly upward thanks to some recent cooling we've seen in the subsurface and surface ocean."

There is a potential 10th storm building in the deep Atlantic between the Caribbean and Africa. The season doesn't start to reach its most active phase until Aug 20.
