Highest number of invests?
I noticed on NRL that there are current 5 invests in the WPAC. Now I'm curious, does anyone know what was the most invests active at the same time in one basin?

As I hit the Submit button, there are 10 simultaneous invests around the world at the Navy site, including six in the WPAC. ....probably not a record, but it's more than I've personally seen at one time.

(I wasn't counting TDs or named systems. Only "Invests". Did he want all storms?)

If I recall correctly, at one point in 2005 we had 2 active named storms and three invests in the Atlantic basin at one time. If I get a chance, I'll dig up the info. I may be crazy, but I think there may have been 3 named storms simultaneously during all this.

There were. From early September 7 to early September 10, the storms Maria, Nate and Ophelia were active.
[...] we had 2 active named storms and three invests in the Atlantic basin at one time.
The points at which we had two active named storms:
- Cindy-Dennis
- Dennis-Emily
- Franklin-Gert
- Harvey-Irene
- Maria-Nate-Ophelia
- Ophelia-Philippe
- Philippe-Rita
- Stan-Unnamed
