If you put 1995 on there when there were 19 named storms, the G storm wasn't named until August 10. :eek:

It almost looks like July 05 is August 04, etc. If that's the case there appears to be a statistical chance we'll be 5 or 6 storms higher in number this August. Although as a weather watcher, I would find that fascinating. But the consequences of such a jump in the number of storms would have devestating results.

Yet another tropical storm for the record-setting season...

Image

Something to note so far this year is that the majority of the cyclones are only staying as tropical storms and don't reach hurricane strength. If the season ended today, the season would be considered slightly below average overall (specifically hurricanes category) with 9 named storms, 2 hurricanes, 2 major hurricanes.

Haha we'd have to have ZERO storms for a MONTH to catch up with 2004!

Up the ramp we go with Jose and Katrina...

Something interesting to note is that the gap between the 2005 and 2004 seasons has been closing gradually compared to earlier in the season. Let's see if that continues or if it continues to climb insanely.

yeah we got "dangerously" close during that lull... another interesting thing is that the lull and then two name storms very quickly is very similar to the lull in 2004 in late Sep and early Oct and then two quick storms...

If theres 20 storms before the greek list is used and TD 16 becomes a TS then that would leave 5 more named storms before we finish this list and go on to the greek one! I think we might do it this year! lol

21 names.

Ophelia, which i'm sure we'll see before the day is out, is the 15th. [Remember, TD#10 didn't form.]

Wonder if someone has the talent to make a similar graph comparing 2005 to 1933, since there is no longer any comparison relevent to 2004.

Those totals of 4 majors will go to 6 before too long the number that Dr Gray said for majors.
