Oh, well - guess you had to be here - for most here and on the Gulf coast, Thanksgiving and even Christmas were quietly celebrated, since most were still in the midst of a hurricane recovery emergency at that point.
I know at my sister's house (where we'd usually all gather for Thanksgiving), they only had electricity for a week or so prior to Thanksgiving, and, my own neighborhood was a mess on that day...
As I said, guess you had to be there (here)...

OKAY.....I KNOW you were not directing that at me. If you were, have you even looked at my location? I rode out Katrina on the western edge of the west eyewall. I was out working that afternoon as soon as the winds died to 40mph. I got 6 immuizations to protect me from diseases. I lived off of MRE's for almost two months while working in the filth of the destruction. I walked in 4 - 5 feet of contaminated water. I saw countless dead bodies which I had to work around. I was on the Miss. Gulf Coast the day after Katrina wintessing things most never will. I LIVE HERE.
Please do NOT tell me I had to be there. I was there more than you'll ever know.

Frank you sound a bit skeptical this season will get going, I'd have to say as each day goes by and I see NOTHING out there that you could be right. Strong cold fronts are already building in North America - not a good sign for an active season.

You've got it backwards. The season still hasn't snapped out of a spring pattern as far as negativity and a disruptive upper atmosphere. Remember 2004 had such late troughs too.
Yes, you are right but in 2004 after Charley came through the long-wave pattern shifted from troughiness to ridging across the Western Atlantic - the Bermuda High took control for several weeks in Sept allowing Jeanne and Frances to track west across east-central Florida

Derek,
What is your take on this season thus far? I know we're not at peak but doesn't it seem unusual in the lack of moisture and inability of anything to hold convection?

NEXRAD also said that the stronger than normal easterlies that are causing the strong trade winds have caused upwelling in the Atlantic that have brought cooler water to the surface.
But, really, it is one of those intangible atmospherics that suddenly shifts the whole theatre negative. Maybe the MJO in coincidence with the upwelling.
