SHIPS up to 60 knots.

We could be up to the T storm by the start of November. Pretty darn close to the Greek Alphabet. Can't help to laugh at the early season cancel posts.

In all honesty, it's still a pretty quiet season overall despite the above average ACE and number of storms. If this one develops, it will add on to the names and add on to the ACE but that won't make the season active in the public's eye. It's amazing that despite all of these systems, not one hurricane has made landfall in the U.S., the odds of having some 17+ named storms and no hurricane in the U.S. are pretty shocking.

I'm seeing a lot of chatter regarding an 'active season'. It has nothing to do with US landfalls, folks. This debate is far better suited for Talking Tropics, IMO.

I agree with the fact that it is amazing the U.S didn't get whopped this year; however, we will very likely get to the T storm this season. How many times has that happened. In every aspect, this has been a hyperactive season. This is getting off the topic at hand though, so any further discussion will continue in Talking tropics.

Well Ivan, it's easy to get to the 'T' storm when they name everything that has thunderstorms with it. Thinking back to storms Bonnie, Colin, Gaston, Fiona, or Nicole and then TD 2, and 5...what a waste. Half of those systems existed but for a moment in time and there is no good indication (IMO) that the above storms carried 39 mph sustained winds...in gusts, maybe. Also lets throw in the fact that the NHC has completely skewed the records by naming sub-tropical storms. You mean we went nearly 70 years without reaching 21 storms and in the last 5 years, we're on the verge of doing it twice? Come on. Something is up and it is NOT the 'changing climate.'

Excuse me but I don't think they wasted names in systems like Colin and Fiona their winds reached 60 mph and 65 mph respectively. Plus even if they didn't name subtropical systems in the past those storms are counted in the final totals, for example 1969 had 18 storms and one of them was a subtropical storm.

Poppycocks. I not for a second believe that those storms had that kind of wind with them. The organization was dismal at best. Half the time Colin had an exposed center. Just because the NHC says it has such wind doesn't mean that it does. You can find example after example of 'max' sustained winds and corresponding observations that don't even come close to that. Case in point, T.S. Allison, 2001. "Sustained 1-min wind" was 60 mph. The highest sustained wind I could find was at Pleasure Peir in Galveston of 38 kts or 43 mph. That's just ONE example of many I'm sure I could muster up. Another example is Hurricane Ike. Not one single observation even came close to reporting a 1-min. sustained wind of 110 mph. You'd be hard pressed to even find a gust that high.

Even if they were weak or disorganized, each of those systems you mentioned fit the standards of a TS or TD, there were several years in the past with systems like Bonnie and Colin that were named. A TS doesn't have to be perfectly formed, there just has to be enough convection and a LLC with winds up to 39 mph for it to get classified. The subtropical thing is still in question, but at least they don't add that to the ACE column which truly measures the season's activity level.

As for the past 70 years, I do agree with you that there were likely many more systems that were unclassified but the NHC and other organizations do acknowledge the fact that the number of named storms has probably held steady for the last 70 or so years because there were probably several unclassified systems in the past. However, even though the number of named storms has probably held steady, the change in climate has definitely increased the number of major storms that we've seen. This is all due to the warming oceans over the last 70-100 years and that is not a made up statistic.

Now back to the topic at hand.

Now back to the topic at hand.

Dr. Chris Landsea of the National Hurricane Center would disagree. Upon my meeting with him, he indicated that while hurricanes are increasing in strength, it is negligible and can't be measured accurately. The increase in strength, this according to Dr. Landsea is a 3 to 5% increase. What difference does that make with a storm velocity of 100 kts? Not much. Could easily be disguised as a gust.

On a side note, I'm going to go celebrate my birthday right now with a hurricane at the local bar!

I just want to point out that according to SFWMD, it is very important to know where the second Hebert Box is in relation to Shary lol.
