Hurricane Conference meet up in Orlando

[hurricanetrack]

Anyone who is going to the National Hurricane Conference or who lives near or in Orlando, come out to Buffalo Wild Wings next Weds night from 7pm on...... I'll be there with Ilene Jones from KittyCode. Many of you probably use her Hurricane and Hurricane HD app for iOS devices. We'll be hosting a meet up for our friends, fans and clients. Bring the family and let's talk hurricanes.

Address is: 7004 International Drive in Orlando, not far from the convention areas.

QUOTE TO LEAD OFF:

The combination of a warming tropical Pacific and a cooling tropical Atlantic are leading us to think that the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season will have less activity than the average 1981-2010 season. However, we stress the need to realize that there is inherent uncertainty in seasonal TC prediction. In addition, hurricanes can make landfall in inactive seasons and do major damage (e.g., Alicia in 1983 and Andrew in 1992). Coastal residents need to prepare the same for every hurricane season. A full discussion of the outlook for the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season will be available with the first quantitative forecast issued on Wednesday, April 4. This forecast will include predictions for numbers of named storms, hurricanes, major hurricanes, etc.

I'm in good agreement there. My current thinking is 10/4/2, but those 2 majors could easily be landfallers.
