2005 vs 1933....can it happen???

#1 Postby weatherwindow » Mon Jul 11, 2005 4:49 am

will this be the year to break the all-time record for named storms, 21, set in 1933. wellllll, the current score is 4 to 3 (and only in the second inning 8-) )......dennis formed on 5 jul, while #4, in 1933 didnt form until 21 jul. so that put us 1 storm and 16 days ahead of the pace. assuming emily forms later today(which seems a good bet based on sat presentation), the score will become 5-3, or two storms and 14 days ahead.#5 in 1933 formed on 25 july. down the road, 1933 puts up some stiff competition with 7 storms in aug, with the first forming 12 august....looks like we had better pad our lead in july!. not out of the question, with the models developing the wave behind our prospective emily. the competition remains formidable in sept with 6 named storms, oct with 3 and nov with 1.....my gut feeling tells me we will get close but keeping up in aug and sept will be difficult....altogether a most interesting competition, dont you think........rich

I do believe it can happen and although I love these things...the more we have the greater chance that more people will see devastation and death. I don't wish that on anyone!!

There weren't many "fish" in 1933, were there?

If things keep going at this pace without a big lull, I think it is definately possible. 1933 had alot of longtrackers as well.

To correct what I said above, they weren't necessarily long trackers, but many moved westerly as opposed to turning out to sea.

Of the landfalling storms Derek mentioned, 5 hurricanes made U.S. landfall. 3 of those hurricanes were Category 3 storms.

Twenty One named storms this year? I have my druthers. It will be interesting what Dr Gray's update will say on August 5.

They weren't naming them then

I think you would have to say that 1933 had 21 storms of tropical storm strength, or maybe "named storm" strength, or greater. They weren't naming storms back then.

Exactly the first thing that came to mind! I would say maybe the same scenario, but Cindy already hit Louisiana... so no go.

Whew... 19/21 landfalls. That would be one heck of a season... And I guess we're already 4/4... So it's certainly possible.

Interesting how 1995 was close in numbers but had almost completely different steering patterns
