5-How Strong the Azores High be?

6-How far north in latitud the ITCZ axis will go in 2006?

7-How will the TUTT be in terms of position and strengh?

8-Will the SST'S in Atlantic be as warm as in 2005?

9-How many landfalls the U.S Mainland have in 2006?

10-Will the NE Caribbean see hurricanes in 2006?

11-Will the Cape Verde Season be more active than in 2005?

12-Will Texas see more activity than in 2005?

13-How many named storms the 2006 season will end up?

Will the United States handle hurricane preperation, evacuations and relief much differently than it did before?

That's a lot questions! But....what is wierd is what I just saw. I'm currently driving along US Hwy 90 in SELA and something caught my eye on the left side of the road, hiding behind a tree. It was mother nature playing a drum roll. She thought she was funny too!

I'm curious to see if we have a SAL this year that dominates the eastern atlantic.

Alrighty then lets get these answered and move on to more pressing things like watching IR sattelite for genesis.. :lol:


1-When will the first named storml form?


When they call it Alberto that is when..

2-Where will the first named storm form?


In and area from Iceland to Canada to Texas to Mexico to South America to Africa to Portugal to U.K and then back to Iceland.. details with 100% accuracy..this is easy..

3-How will the Bermuda High be in terms of strengh?


Well it is a high and thus real high heights are measured and anything that tall has to be strong..so I say strong..real strong if it's high up.

4-How far north in latitud the Azores High will be?


Geeesh this is easy the Azore Island are near 38.5N and 28.4W so the Azores high is right overhead if it's the Azores high..

5-How Strong the Azores High be?


Simple if it has a name like the Bermuda one it has to be tough and thus strong. Real strong since it has good size volcano under it.. 7,713 feet..

6-How far north in latitud the ITCZ axis will go in 2006?


That dang thing moves like a snake so I say little..snakes like warm weather.

7-How will the TUTT be in terms of position and strengh?


Uhh.. They layed him to rest long ago..so horizontal and pretty weak.

8-Will the SST'S in Atlantic be as warm as in 2005?


Right like somebody took a thermometer and measured the SSTs in 2005..the boat ride alone would take over a year.. that was a trick question no doubt.

9-How many landfalls the U.S Mainland have in 2006?


Well I bet the chance of a landfall in Maine is slim so I say 1 at most.

10-Will the NE Caribbean see hurricanes in 2006?


Well the chances are pretty good. They have an excellent view from out there as they can see most most any wave passing though the basin. They can always use Sattelite like the rest of us if they have to..

11-Will the Cape Verde Season be more active than in 2005?


I expect the people of the islands we be out and about like regular active folks shopping and eating out like usual during the warm weather of the Cape Verde Season.

12-Will Texas see more activity than in 2005?


Most likely it is Texas and like to do things bigger and better so I expect lots of shopping and eating out.

13-How many named storms the 2006 season will end up?


Well like I said yesterday. After melting a CPU and 3 scientific calulators the number is 15...I refuse to rerun through the process..

14-Will the fish storms dominate the season?


LOL..another trick question.. they all form over water so obviously they are all fish and strongest over water..so fish storm dominate...

15-How will the pressures be in the Caribbean?


There is alot of pressure in life but it will fluctuate like everyone elses. I don't think they should feel to much pressure until a Hurricane comes.. Boy that would not be good for the stress..

16-Will the Outer Banks be the prime target in 2006?


Yea well according to my calculations and some impressive theories I am working on getting approved.. I am calling for the Bermuda Triangle to go positive and a corriolis vortex to develop somewhere off the outerbanks in mid august. This would line up with some coronal banding and injected forcing of GW gases.. :eek: I am just kidding.. nevermind.. Heck if I know.. just be prepared everywhere.


Will the United States handle hurricane preperation, evacuations and relief much differently than it did before?


Well hopefully they won't be under the same overwhelming stress. It will be better overall with some flaws of course..

I'm curious to see if we have a SAL this year that dominates the eastern atlantic.


I am not.. He sounds like one big dude..but with the Strong Azores high as mentioned above he probably will be feeling grumpy under all the pressure.

Off to the next blob.. :cheesy:
