I still have a feeling that this year will remain quiet. Let's keep a positive thought that it will.

Matt, some of us live here because we provide a service to others that live and work in the area. Yes it is a choice and yes it can be a risk but it sure would be strange to not have anyone living on our coasts. How far is far enough? Katrina did major damage as far inland as Jackson and Meridian MS. Not exactly coastal towns.

Vanechaser,
Will you please clarify the signs for me that "the lid is about to come off."
I know that it is the time of the year for peak activity, but aren't there hindrances to development? I have been reading about too much wind shear, a problem about El Nino, not warm enough water temps, etc., so I assumed, gullibly I guess, that unless some of the problems corrected themselves that this year might continue to be uneventful. I would appreciate clarification of my misguided ideas.
Thanks so much!

Wow, just caught the date thing as I tend to read backwards...funny how people are still saying the same thing this year at the same time we were all saying it a year ago.... and well we all know the rest of that story 
...Interesting enough today our local forecaster here in Myrtle mentioned people not being prepared, saying the season is slow ect...and then he popped up a graph over the past 100 and some odd years of month to month hurricane activity....
June 8% July 9% August 20% Sept, 37% Oct 21% Nov. 5%
These are the averages for over 100+ years!!
So, be prepared....according to these stats this is just the beginning and not the end....

Since there are people who are still in recovery mode living in trailers and tarps on roofs and the insurance companies need at least two quiet years to recover, I'm praying that we don't get any landfalling storms this year. Also, since last year was so active maybe nature will go back the other way and be a less active year. Just hoping and praying.

And could you please explain what this has to do with the topic of the thread?
i agree with you to a point... however, i get tired of hearing the same thing over and over of how it only takes one... we need a new phrase... i think that one is worn out....

Why should we stop pointing this out to people? People tend to forget this too often.
