Invest 97L sure looks healthy for a mere tropical wave. Is that outflow I see setting up?

And we aren't even halfway through the season yet!!! :roll:

If this system becomes Erika in the next couple days, we tie the record for most named storms BEFORE the end of July....and have almost two weeks to break it.

We reached the 4th named storm earlier than any hurricane season in my records (back to 1871)...even ahead of 1933 and 1995's pace...at least so far.

"Erika" looks like it's moving a bit fast, and it's embedded in the ITCZ still, so I don't think it'll develop over the next 48-72 hours. Perhaps when it's approaching the Caribbean or even in the Caribbean.

It would appear that I'm going to be very busy this year. Unless this activity suddenly shuts off in August or September, we may just see as many storms as 1995 but most of them affecting the U.S. Florida & the southeast U.S. from Mississippi to the Carolinas may be really in for it this year, once those major hurricanes begin developing.

The convection appears to have weakened a bit in the last few frames, but we still need to watch it. I agree with you wxman, I think this year could be just as busy as 95.
