My August Prediction, and My New Weather Blog

#1 Postby Hybridstorm_November2001 » Sun Jul 31, 2005 7:46 pm

I correctly predicted 5 named storms, and 2 hurricanes for July. Thus with my good luck, I thought I'd try it again. Here goes:


9 named storms


5 hurricanes


2 major hurricanes


Oh and check out my new weather blog:

1995? thats named storms I think they had 21 in 1933 1995 had only 19

My 100% unofficial sort of educated guess of an august forcast

7 named storms

4 hurricanes

3 major hurricanes

1 Cat 5 (I think one WILL hit the united states before this season is over)

2 Florida landfalls

4 U.S landfalls total (Includes depressions storms and hurricanes)


This pace would shatter my original 100% partly educated even more of a guess of the 2005 season

16 named storms

9 hurricanes

5 Major Hurricanes

2 Cat 5's

5 Florida Landfalls (Not like last years though as in not as powerful set of storms)

7 U.S Landfalls



Our stats now

7 Named storms

2 hurricanes

2 major hurricanes

0 Cat 5's

2 Florida Landfalls

3 U.S landfalls

I concur. But I think August will be the calm before the storm, not the month that the USA should dread....

Storms like 94L(Harvey) we should went. Because them more "Harveys" the less the cape verdes will have to work to get this season over the top=less landfalling hurricanes.

Indeed. In 1995 we had 19 named storms, but only one hurricane (Opal) of major status made landfall on the US mainland. Nearly all the other monsters (like Felix and Luis), recurved after smashing through the Islands.

I think a tropical storm may affect Florida and possibly a Hurricane for South or North Carolina. The northern Leeward Islands may take a hit from a major hurricane.
