Expert forecasts for 2015 N Atlantic Hurricane Season

[Ntxw]

With September almost over, here are the updates for the expert forecasts this season to date.

Official Numbers thus far through September

9/2/1

ACE 28

The closest is CSU (Klotzbach and Gray) with 8/2/1 with ACE of 35. TSR is second with 11/4/1 ACE of 44.

NOAA did pretty good except their call was more of a range so it's not a huge feat for them with 70% below normal season

NC State did well too, but again was more of a range than actual pinpoint forecast.

Wxbell did good on their numbers of systems but only half of their ACE (they predicted near normal).

I couldn't find WSI. Larry Cosgrove was the most far off thus far predicting an above average season in numbers (9 hurricanes equals a lot of ACE).

Do we have a date announced for when the first 2016 Atlantic season forecast will be released?

Do we have a date announced for when the first 2016 Atlantic season forecast will be released?

Not yet but I know that CSU always add the dates of their future forecasts and when the verification of the forecasts comes by late November it will come.

TSR very close, especially if Kate becomes a hurricane
