Not much changes. One less hurricane but the same number of named storms for the season.

Forecasting 9/5/2 from this point forward. I think 6/3/1 will be closer.(jmo) I expect another little lull after Felix. I don't think 99L will develop.

I agree with your numbers. I know many are in awe with having Cat.5 Dean and Felix within two weeks and that's understandable. As I've said before too many get excited about the number of named storms that are predicted each season to develop instead of focusing on the intensity and where they make landfall. Can you imagine what the thinking would be in the future had we had two Cat. 5 hurricanes make U.S. landfall yet only have 10 total named storms the entire season. Well we still have most of September and early October left. I personally think what we get from now on will be homegrown (GOM,NW Carr. or SE Coast if it doesn't form in the Atlantic within the next week. My numbers are still 11-13 named storm with one more biggie (Cat.3 or higher) left.

Pretty much in line with 2001 from the sounds of things and we are still a good week ahead of the 2001 right now and also two cat-5's higher then that year as well. We are still well on course for an above average ACE total as well, even if we had dwg71 numbers I'd have thought we'd have no problems coming in above 06 and above average.

I still stand by my numbers of 13/7/5. Changing your numbers this late is like picking the score in the 7th inning....MGC

I'm not sure, I would have to find original forecast thread, but I think I did have 13/7/3, but search is disabled so I dont have access to it.

They decided to include Andrea into their total storm count afterall. They are still expecting a active October and I agree with that 100%
