Lets do this again as its always interesting to follow what the ACE (Accumulated cyclone energy) numbers are for each system and how the seasons on both basins end up in the ACE stats.So those math gurus out there,lets get this thing rolling as we have the first named storm in the EPAC and that basin is already accumulating numbers. I will update the title after an update of the numbers for a system is posted.

2009 Northeast Pacific Accumulated Cyclone Energy

• Tropical Depression One-E (01E) = 0.0000
• Tropical Storm Andres (02E) = 0.5275

SEASON TOTAL = 0.5275

[cycloneye]

Thank you for starting to update the numbers.That includes the 8 AM PDT advisory?

[RL3AO]

Yep.

[cycloneye]

Yep.

Ok good.Lets keep rolling the numbers.

As of the 2 PM PDT advisory for Hurricane Andres at 65 kts,here is the latest update of the ACE numbers.

Tropical Depression One-E (01E) = 0.0000
Hurricane Andres (02E) = 2.1600

That's not what I get. It looks like you went with 60kt at #9 instead of 65kt (1.8 + 0.36 = 2.16)

Thank you for the correction.I think I will let the math gurus (RL3AO,RattleMan and HURAKAN) do the numbers.

As nobody posted the final numbers of Andres since it was downgraded this morning,I went to Wikipedia and found this final ACE number (3.1925) I dont know if those are the correct ones as Wikipedia has been many times wrong in the past.Where are the math gurus of storm2k?

I knew Wiki was wrong again.

The Atlantic has to play catchup but when will the Basin get rid of the zeros is the question?

2009 Northeast Pacific Accumulated Cyclone Energy

Andrés was updated and it now gives me 3.07

Rattleman, can you check that?
