I am the lone vote for P or higher (so far). We could easily see Danny in 24hrs and Erika next week, maybe even the "F" storm before the end of July or in very early August. We're well on our way to 16-18 storms for the season. But, as my signature says, ignore the numbers - focus on the steering patterns. As we have seen so far, there appears to be a general steering flow through the Caribbean to the GOM, Florida, or the southeast U.S. and NOT out to sea.

Hey Wxman57!! Nice to see you! :D You were right about TD#5 when it came out of Africa last week. It was on 15N, and also it went to the northwest into the north-central Atlantic as you said. Now we have a TD well to the northeast of the Islands. I was confused because the convection went down into 8N when it was off African coast.

Have to give honor to the one who deserve it.:oops:

Congratulation

I'm goin to say the N storm!

OK wxman, I'll be the first to bite on your comment. Where do you think Erika and Fabian will form? Take a look at 1933 are you suggesting something simular?

Well, I had originally thought J or K (back in late May) - but I may have to re-think that idea. I will say L at this point.

I'll go with O. :-) Wxman, good observation on the steering flows so far. If this pattern stays in place, the GOM/lower east coast could have a lot more hurricane season than we want!

I agree with Marshall. I think we will hit the "O" storm. It is quite possible we could get to P or Q or R or :o

Well, based on my season prediction I should say O, but I am starting to think even that 15 storm prediction could be low!!! THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE VERY INTERESTING SEASON!!

I say P too and I voted. There's 3 P's in the replies but only 2 votes. Somebody forgot to vote...hehe

I picked P because I said 16 named storms at the beginning of Hurricane Season and I'm going to stick with it. It actually doesn't seem so far-fetched right about now...lol ;)

I'm going to stick with my original Tropical Atlantic Season Forecast ... 13 storms ... the "M" storm ... (I post this tediously now)...

We're getting ready to head into what should become a favorable "MJO" phase and I can't help to think Wxman57 could be right on the money with the possibly of Erika and Fabian before July is over with ...

I voted for I - O, but think there is a possibility that we may make it a storm or two further.
