Friends of ours just got through on their single sideband to us. They are in between The Caicos and the DR and it is nasty.

There's no need to ask. We all know about all the rain and flooding this system has produced.

We may well end up with about 17 named storms, 10 hurricanes and 5-6 majors - almost precisely as forecast. Yet most in the U.S. consider the seasonal forecast a big bust because no hurricane made landfall along the U.S. Coast. The public judge whether a season is "active" by one thing alone - if they're hit. No hits = forecast bust as far as U.S. citizens are concerned. Stories are already coming out about how bad the seasonal forecast was for the year.

Otto appears to be accelerating off to the NE and out to sea now. Doesn't appear to have much chance of intensifying beyond Cat 1.

Yes, I have seen some comments on some blogs about this hurricane season being a bust. I guess that is a good case of collective ignorance. This year was pretty amazing. But, there was no landfall of significance in the U.S. so most people just ignore it. Why should this season be any different from and other season?
