In all seriousness, I can’t wait to see his insight on current trends and what clues him and his team are trying to sniff out.


2013 ATL was also a Mega-bust

Only 24 hours until the first CSU prediction. I’m thinking they’ll go below below the originally TSR numbers and forecast an only slightly above normal season.

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.

Looking at the cool equatorial pacific but also the cold spot off africa, I can see them assuming a 2012 type year. 18 NS/8H/4M

Forecasting under the original TSR numbers would already put it at average since the new averages are in effect this year. I doubt he goes lower than 16/17 NS. I might even be shocked if he goes below 18 NS.

I’m never going to get used to the new averages making 160-170 ACE just “regular above-average”.

They called for a active season, but it's nothing compared to 2020 . . .

Looks like I'm going to be jumping onboard a little earlier than normal this season, I saw the CSU forecast and was very interested in what they were able to gather, the April NMME was also interesting in forecasting a wetter MDR by ASO. It's still April but with less than 53 days to go, it's about time to start getting my daily dose of hurricanetrack's hurricane outlooks, I always love his discussions before the start of the official season.
