:uarrow: Interesting, I'm thinking CSU MAY go up or just remain the same knowing them. Anyone know what they may be going with tomorrow?

I'm thinking the same numbers. Phil's tweets have been Atlantic negative lately and has taken an interest in the El Nino prospects.

Seventeen tropical storms is quite a large number, but seven hurricanes is only one above average. That's a somewhat interesting ratio, even accounting for the three storms that have already been named.

I found interesting:
CSU July 2017 Forecast: 15/8/3 - 39% E Coast Major; 38% Gulf Coast Major.
CSU June 2017 Forecast: 14/6/2- 33% E Coast Major; 32% Gulf Coast Major.
CSU June 2005 Forecast: 15/8/4 - 58% E Coast Major; 44% Gulf Coast Major.
CSU June 2004 Forecast: 14/8/3 - 52% E Coast Major; 40% Gulf Coast Major.

CSU storm #'s similar to 2004/05, but the Major striking the CONUS % are much lower...

Just curious, what does CSU claim to be the "seasonal average risk" for a major strike to occur for the E Coast or Gulf Coast regions?

Seems likely IMO. There has been more negative signs appearing as of lately when compared to positives.

I'm guessing little change. Maybe they bump the number of named storms up 1 or 2 since we've had 5 already.

Lowers numbers? Why? If anything a slight increase is in the cards. Meat of this season lies ahead folks.

Number of named storms should decrease by one at the most and increase by 2-3 at the most if anything. But the only number I could see being lowered by one or two is the amount of hurricanes. But with the meat of the season ahead and with mostly favorable conditions in the cards, it should stay mostly stagnant.

Guess percentages. Gulf got hit by 3 majors in 2005 which was a 44% forecast. Gulf (Florida) got hit by 2 majors in 2004 which was 40% and the 1 E Coast major which was at 52%. I'm sure there's some skill involved or they wouldn't put out the percentage chances of being hit. Nevertheless, none of the US has been hit by a major in almost 12 years. To have 39%/38% possibility is pretty high in a short term sample and probably about right long term if the previous longest major U.S. landfalling drought was 5 years. I don't know.

There's probably very little (if any) skill to that forecast. I'd guess Phil does it because maybe they will have skill 15 years from now and would have a longer record to compare with.
