Why is this hurricane season such a boring bust? All of the scientists said it would be the most active ever.

Weather is very hard to predict.

Saving it all up for next hurricane season (or the next, or the one after that).

When the sunspot count is high the sun produces a higher fraction of it's energy in shorter wavelengths and the additional UV flux scatters in the upper atmosphere, warming it.
Hurricanes depend on a cold upper atmosphere to create the potential energy which results in the strong updraft in the inner eye wall that results in the very low sea level atmospheric pressure. With a warmer upper atmosphere that potential is reduced and thats why high sunspot counts result in weak hurricane season.
This has all been widely known for over half a century, anyone predicting high convective storm activity during a high sunspot count period is either very ignorant of relevant basic common knowledge or they're intentionally making a prediction they know is wrong in order to be deceptive or as a joke to see how many idiots are dumb enough to fall for it.

Why do we keep funding Israeli scientists?

Not "all the scientists", nor did they say "would be". The affirmations were based on probabilities, not certainties. Some people misunderstand what is said. Some people like yourself.
