So if you are in Florida, prepare for last year, but hope for winter-like conditions. :roll:

it feels like the season has awakened, but I keep forgetting that it's still mid to late May.

thanks people - got some mild thunder and lightning here right now - stalled frontal boundary just out to my west does not seem to be moving much but does appear to be a focus for storm development - here's hoping for a supercell at least tonight.

This season does appear interesting but I do here that El Nino is supposed to be in development too - is this not supposed to cause too much shear and rip canes apart?

On the contrary the latest forecasts issued earlier this month from NOAA showed neutral conditions prevailing thru the heart of the season.

ah I must be a little bit behind - guess I have been concentrating on all things at a mesoscale level and not any wider than that! Thanks for the information cycloneye. :D

Approaching 00:00z, meaning there's only 10 days to go! Can't wait. E-Pac's already got a 1-0 lead, so hopefully we'll get things cooking early. :P
