  My name is Carl Azuz.

  It's great to see you as always.

  One of our primary stories today includes resultsfrom the New York primary.

  Tuesday's U.S. presidential nomination conteststhere were a significant boost to the frontrunners of both major political parties.

  Businessman Donald Trump claimed victory for the Republicans.

  He was born in the borough of Queens in New York City.

  His win in New York moved him closer to the 1,237 delegates a Republican would need to clinchthe party nomination.

  Mr. Trump now has 847, Texas Senator Ted Cruz has 553, Ohio Governor John Kasich has 148delegates.

  Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wasn't born in New York, but she represented thestate as U.S. senator.

  Her win there moved her closer to the 2,883 delegates a Democrat would need to clinch theparty nomination.

  She now has 1,443 pledged delegates and 487 super delegates.

  Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has a 1,183 pledged delegates and 40 super delegates.

  We are 10 days away from the official start of the Atlantic hurricane season.

  And meteorologists of Colorado State University have issued their predictions about what kindof season this could be.

  They're expecting 12 named storms will form this year and that five will become hurricanes.

  That's about average for the season the runs from June 1st through November 30th, thoughhurricanes can form outside those days.

  Forecasting hurricanes is not an exact science.

  Predictions from Colorado State and the National Hurricane Center have often missed the mark.

  Still, they can help Americans and relief workers prepare in advance.

  One additional complication this year, though.

  El Nino, natural warming of Pacific Ocean temperatures that can affect weather patterns allover.

  El Nino is weakening and that could increase hurricane chances in the Atlantic or make themjust entirely unpredictable.

  El Nino and La Nina play a critical role in the weather, not only around the U.S., but around theworld.

  Now, meteorologists don't have a crystal ball, but looking at La Nina and El Nino can give us agood indicator of the weather patterns of the next couple of weeks and even months.
