My feeling is that the names Claudette, Erika, Grace, or Henri could be big ones this season. With this year ending in "5", we could see something historic. Just wait... :O

Hurricanes are an amazing natural phenomena. While many are spiraling pits of evil that kill people or cause devastation, some are tame and stay clear of land.

Re: Big ones for 2015
I'm sorry, but are these some sort of prediction or just "storm stuff" fantasies?

Re: Big ones for 2015
I now think it could possibly be Hilda landfalling in Hawaii as an actual hurricane.

I can name a few 100mph storms or higher since 1980
2014 Arthur
1991 Bob
1984 Diana
1983 Alicia
so very few do become bad from non tropical means

How about Rita? It formed from squalls on the trailing end of a cold front east of the Bahamas.

Re: Big ones for 2015
if you take out arthur the number is 1%> that a storm will be devastating from no tropical means so not likely but in very rare instances

One that I think may have had non-tropical origins was Carol 1954, but without satellites such could never be proven. 1954 was certainly NOT an analog to 2015 though...
AFAIK, the only Cat 4 or 5 storm in the satellite era to have non-tropical origins was 1991's Claudette. Interestingly, 1991 might be a good analog for 2015...

Speak for yourself lol, it was the worst storm here (over six inches of rain in eighteen hours 100 mph wind gusts) since Bob in 1991.
