When will the first 2012 North Atlantic named system form?
I think it's time to start this poll as you never know if another very early Anatype system forms well before the season starts.The poll will close on March 31rst on the time that this thread was made (9:38 PM EDT) Remember that after this poll is closed,another one opens the next day (April 1rst at 3:00 PM EDT) and that is the 2012 Storm2k numbers poll.
I will go with June 11-20.

I guessed May. I don't know if I really truly believe it or not, but with everything blooming so early this year (azaleas in February? Really?), not to mention tornadoes so far north in February, who's to say the tropics won't get going a little early too?

I voted for the middle of June but would had also voted as early as late May, I think we could see an early named system in the western Caribbean/GOM before things start resembling a weak El Nino pattern (if at all).

Went with June 13th for June 11-20. Probably should have gone with May as I was feeling that pretty strongly.
