Dangerous synoptic set up over the next 2 weeks for the US. Lets hope for the dry air to keep the TWs at bay over the next few days.

Do you believe a model's 376 hr UL forecast?

I'm still sticking to 1988 analog but this isn't entirely out of the question either--I don't recall who but somebody pointed out that the equatorial E Pacific is functionally in a Nino even if the rest of it isn't.
1988 would have had a very wild and active September and October had it been in a +AMO imho; I agree, I do think that that is a decent analog, especially when considering how we *could* potentially see the big gun hurricanes after August it seems like (from what I can theorize, it makes sense if this season is a backloaded one; iirc, there was some talk last year about how active Augusts actually may not be conducive for above average seasons, and while 2021 did end up above average, considering its relatively active August, I think that it may have had the opportunity to be more active if its MJO/CCKW timing was a bit different, as aside from Larry and Sam, September and October were not all that crazy busy).
Also, I personally disagree that we are "functionally" in a Nino; that does not explain why the EPAC, while active, still failed to produce a swarm of major hurricanes (like what we saw in 2014 or 2018), and why the WPAC has been phenomenally silent. The behaviors of both basins are very much Nina-like.
Found the source, essentially isolated the equatorial E Pacific. Not saying this will necessarily put a damper on the season, but should be looked at as a possible reason after the season if we do in fact have reduced activity.

Though dry air in the MDR might mean waves developing further west, which might only increase threat to land.

I think a ridiculously quiet year is definitely on the table now.
Something to keep in mind that in 2013 the MDR didn't turn bone dry until late in August into September and October.

Last few CFS runs show at least 5-6 MDR storms during September (in addition to three at the end of this month) in addition to what seem to be three decent-strength systems for the Gulf so consistent that July/August are not an indicator of September. In fact, the model shows basin-wide activity lasting well into October.

Who has the CFS that has plenty of activity?

I am not the biggest fan of CFS but that would be in line with today's weekly forecast. We might possibly get a very busy later half of September. Also, all the indicators are getting bullish as well. SST anomalies are rising, shear is gradually decreasing, SAL will eventually end as well.

Looks like somewhat steady activity for about 6-8 weeks starting at the end of August. Gulf and Caribbean views have some decent strength storms for the model resolution (only once have I seen sub-990mb pressure on this model, and that was Michael)
Obviously individual storm tracks can likely dismissed but it's a good indicator of things--the model's been pretty quiet when it was showing July/most of August that far out.

It's actually a good indicator when looked at over a length of time and I feel is better than the monthly departures when it comes to activity. The problem arises when people try using it as a direct forecasting tool during a block of time (though it did accurately show Michael a full month out along with October 2020's activity)

I thought the CFS just last week was showing just a couple of storms through September? It changed its mind fast.

It had a couple of sporadic bad runs, notably the isolated one storm in September run (which I mentioned mostly as ironic as the sole storm it showed took an Andrew-type track)
Similarly 2014 (when I first started watching the model) had mostly a quiet season, but a few had more activity (hence why it's best to watch over several runs before getting an idea the trend)

Re: 2022 Indicators (SSTs/SAL/MSLP/Shear/Steering/Instability) and >Day 16 Models
Could be quite the backloaded season if models are correct and the CFS shows a possible hyperactive September and October so we’ll see how this season goes

I predicted 11 storms in September and still feeling confident about that. going to be a September to Remember

Didn’t 2008 have that same setup?

Danny Morris is a CPA. Not a met, nor on my goto list. But GBA
I feel that with all the indicators that we have talked about for months still showing enhanced cyclone potential there will be a champagne cork like pop off to the season.

Yeah, I agree; tbh, there's all this screaming about 2013 going on now it seems, but at the same time I have yet to hear about anything regarding a thermohaline circulation collapse, which I believe is the scientifically-established consensus behind why 2013 did so poorly. And as another poster here mentioned, the MDR turned bone dry late August that year, while this year (at least so far) there's not really any evidence of that kind of pattern...idk, guessing it's just peak cancel-yelling time of the year...
