Good table there.If what the Colorado State University team and the UK folks pans out,then those numbers for the Atlantic will spike up bigtime.

For those who dont know what ACE (Accumulated Cyclone Energy) is here is the whole explanation.

Because of Bertha, its way above average for where is should be at this time of year.

When it hits 40 ace it will tie the 1997 season. So much for being a huge ace season. It would need to have some really powerful storms or 30 more like this to make the top ten. It is looking less likely.

I've been away the past few days. Here's my ACE Calcs spreadsheet for Fay as of 17/2100z, with a new feature taken from RL3AO's images (hope you don't mind):

A slightly different font/layout is used this time around due to an optimization in the way I process the HTML document. Thoughts?
