4
I say 4, maybe 5 though. In 6 of the last 8 years there have been 4-6 named storms and at least 1 major hurricane that formed after Sept. 23.
Oh, and Rainband - one of them has your area written all over it. :o

I went with 4 ... obviously if my seasonal totals in my signature were to verify in regards to number of storms for the season (13) ... the number of hurricanes are in jeopardy but one more major is well within reason, IMO. (Unless end of season and best track post-analysis upgrades Erika to hurricane status, and IMO, it could be a probability ...)

The numbers I put out before the official start of the season weren't based on too much. I only figured my prediction from those that gave their forecast before me. There isn't much for me (I would hope most of us, no offense) to figure out before June 1st.
Ana forming so early, thus I am not surprised that we are already about to have the "J" named storm. There can easily have a few more before the season ends.
