Re: Expert Forecasts for 2019 North Atlantic Hurricane Season
CFAN, which has been one of the best verifying Atlantic seasonal outlooks in recent years, issued their Aug update. They are forecasting 8 hurricanes, 2 more US hurricane landfalls, and ACE around 150.

They get pretty specific with landfalls calling out FL as one of them

An ACE of 150 would make for an absolute insane September, October and probably November. That switch would really need to be flipped on for this to happen.

This is actually something the CFS has been pretty consistent on as well, that Florida is getting something this year.

150 ACE from here would be extremely backloaded... You would need several storms within the next few weeks. We shall see

Will seem difficult unless there's some storm that can generate maybe 50 ACE

All you'd need to aide in that are 2-3 strong long-trackers with ~40 ACE each and a few more hurricanes about, so it's attainable if we have a good six weeks of favorable conditions.

They say 2 in the U.S., and 1 in Florida. Is Florida no longer part of the U.S.? I know Dr. Curry. We discussed working together a few years ago. I'd be willing to bet that ACE will be quite a bit lower than 150, given that we may well not see another named storm through the first week of September.

Keep in mind that this was issued 8 crucial days ago rather than today. We’ve gone 8 days with nothing and with still not a whole lot showing on models. If they were to revise their forecast today, I bet they’d be less active than 150 ACE.

Re: Expert Forecasts for 2019 North Atlantic Hurricane Season
Honestly about 110-120 seems reasonable if that was published today.

That's a bit much, I don't think 30-40 ACE would be at stake in a single week

Yeah, typically, we would have seen a significant ramp-up in activity by now. The 2019 season missed the on-ramp and is now on the feeder road.

This i do not get TODAY Aug 20 is always what we call time for the REAL season to get going which runs through Oct 20. I do not think we have missed anything going through aug without a storm will be rare BUT does not mean we still can't see 4-6 weeks of tracking storms. Plenty of time left
Numbers in a given season are not really that important it is the ones that make landfall that matter. Just 1

Re: Expert Forecasts for 2019 North Atlantic Hurricane Season
I disagree. CFAN's outlook is based on large-scale atmosphere-ocean signals associated with active and inactive seasons, not based on model runs.

I don't think anyone here would suggest complacency. There were many seasons in the past with fewer than 10 named storms but with major impacts (1957, 1965, 1983, 1992, etc.). I suspect we will see a major hurricane in the Gulf, most likely late September or October. Watch out NE Gulf again. However, I still think that seasonal ACE will be well under 100, maybe under 60.

Just wait until we see another fish storm generating 50 ACE which honestly isn't out of the question at this rate given steering patterns

Joe Bastardi's season total numbers and ACE prediction may not verify but he absolutely nailed his pre-season high risk areas.

I didn't see Bastardi's risk areas posted on this thread. Did I miss them? Unless it was this AccuWeather map:
I did see Crownweather's that highlighted the Bahamas and north Carolina (among others) pretty well...
It's odd how everyone agrees that Hispanola and southeast Cuba are like definitely at a low risk level despite how frequently they get hit. Same with the (already impacted by Fernand) Mexican Gulf Coast.

I am not a meteorologist, and any posts made by me are not official forecasts or to be interpreted as being intelligent. These posts are just my opinions and are probably silly opinions.

He released it before the season started for his premium Weatherbell members. I no longer have the graphic but if I recall correctly, it looked like this:

If I'm not mistaken, this is where he thought would be the greatest chances for development.
