Just think this year potentially could have been similar to 1995 as there were about 5 depressions that never reached Tropical Storm Strength so this year very well could have reached 19 Named Storms if even 2-3 or those had developed and also if SAL and the Atlantic was not so quiet in September.

Just giving my what ifs. :lol:
