ON had no named storms in 2021 for the Atlantic, but 2021 was indeed hyperactive before it seems like that it became extremely exhausted from being on Tropical Cyclone overdrive and did not want to repeat 2020.
Malou and Rai say hi.
Still, there was a 60 day drought in global MH activity between Sam and Nyatoh, the longest in the entire satellite era and highly abnormal for an active La Niña-fueled Atlantic.
Didn't this happen also in 2017? That was the last textbook hyperactive Atlantic season that I consider, but since Ophelia dissipated in October, not a single Cat3+ formed worldwide that year.
I always thought La Niña years are supposed to be above average TC seasons in the Atlantic, but in terms of global activity La Niña years do not deliver. And I believe that is due to the fact that the Pacific basins are dead during a La Niña, and even a hyperactive Atlantic wouldn't be enough to raise the global activity to normal level.
