Dolly, Gonzalo, Wilfred, Rene, Paulette, Laura, Josephine, Isaias, those names sounds very scary for me, maybe they will be all the hurricanes next season, okay that's a dumb prediction, we know it's difficult for Atlantic to surpass the letter R, but who knows? :p

What makes you say those two?

IDK, but I have a bad feeling about Edouard. Really do. Like, that name is just screaming "PICK ME PICK ME PICK ME" when I look at that list.

No real reason, just a hunch. Josephine will probably from near the peak of the season so higher chance it could be stronger.

Hm, I was thinking next year might be below average because of the 4 active seasons in a row thing?
What do you personally think? I'm so confused rn aha

I like Hanna and Laura but never bet against Isaias. Or Fay

Given some of the recent “I” storms and the legacy of its predecessor, I have a feeling Isaias might be a big one. Maybe Fay will do something weird again, or Hanna will finally get retired.

However, I don’t anticipate another very active season. We’ve already had four in a row, and if the Atlantic will continue to follow the cycle it’s been going through over the last 10-15 years, 2020 should be the start of a less active phase that will last for a few seasons. But then again, I thought that was going to be this season. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong yet again.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

I think it's going to be a slower season compared to the past four years but by no means dead. I have a bad feeling about Dolly or Fay- Dolly to me feels like a Cape Verde cat 4 in August and Fay a small, fast, intense hurricane like Charley. I think Kyle is going to be a late season monster, probably around the secondary peak in October.

I think the 2020 season will be quieter as for numbers 14/7/2 and here’s the big ones in caps

Arthur: Forms from a frontal low on July 3rd near Bermuda but goes out to sea with a peak of 65 mph

BERTHA: Forms just East of the Bahamas on August 3rd and rapidly intensifies to 130mph at landfall in OBX August 6th and continues NNE and makes landfall as a 110mph hurricane in Fall River, MA August 7th

Cristobal: same front that causes Bertha forms a Low Nw of Bermuda August 4th and peaks at 80mph 250miles SE of Nantucket August 6th and makes landfall in Halifax Nova Scotia as a 60mph TS the next day

Dolly: forms around 40w 10N on August 15th and struggles with stable air and does before the Caribbean with a peak of 60mph

EDOUARD: forms north of Puerto Rico August 30th and rapidly intensifies to a 180mph hurricane near Nassau September 1st and continues west to make landfall in Port St Lucie as a 165mph hurricane September 2nd and moves offshore Clearwater and makes a second landfall around Mobile as a 125mph hurricane September 4th

Fay: Forms from an Extratropical low near the Azores September 1st with a peak of 65 mph

Gonzalo: forms in the BOC and makes landfall the same day September 8th as a 45 mph TS

HANNA: forms in the MDR September 8th and intensifies to a 80mph hurricane as it heads NW into the TUTT and dies September 12th

Isaias: Forms near the Isle of Youth September 15th and heads west making landfall September 17th as an 80mph hurricane entering the BOC and reintensifying into a 50mph TS in Veracruz September 19th

Josephine: forms near Morocco September 25th and makes landfall in Morocco as a 40mph TS the same day

Kyle: forms from a Front October 1st near Bermuda and peaks at 85 mph and makes landfall October 3rd at peak intensity

LAURA: forms in the SW Caribbean October 10th and moves toward Cuba and makes landfall as a 110mph hurricane October 13th and over Miami as a 80mph hurricane the same day and out to sea after

Marco: forms in the SW Caribbean November 5th and moves west into Nicaragua the same day as a 45mph TS

Nana: forms off the east coast from a front December 19th and peaks at 65mph and makes landfall as a 50mph TS in Norfolk VA December 22nd

Three majors is actually pretty darn active, especially if they all make a high-impact landfall somewhere. That's one more than in 2018, and equal to 2019.

True. I think it could be similar to 1999 perhaps, that was a relatively slow year with quite a few majors.

1999 wasn't necessarily slow. Sure, only 12 named storms for the active era. But 5 category 4 hurricanes and ACE pretty much being non-stop for about over a month between Bret and Harvey.

Yeah, I just meant "slow" as in fewer named storms. As they always say, it only takes one.
