Bumping the countdown thread as it went way far down.Time is going very fast as those numbers continue to dwindle,and I have a hunch that maybe,maybe something forms before June 1.I base the hunch on the warm anomalies that are present now in most of the Atlantic Basin. (See thread for that)

The new 2008 season is closing in. Here we go again. I am as ready as ever but need to do another trial run on the storm panels. Its been 2 years since the last trial run. Humberto was a Charley in the making. The Houston-Galveston area was safe again but our friend just on the other side of Galveston Bay were hammered again.

Or maybe because you probably don't get much winter. :lol:

Yeah, it seems like only yesterday it was November. Plus Olga and the end-of-year invest kind of shortened the "off-season" a bit.
