Let's see how many form before the month ends but so far those two that voted for one are still happy. A reminder that the September poll will be up on Saturday the 24th so prepare to voice your opinion by voting.

The two people that voted for one are really happy as Erin is the only named storm that formed this month so far. :D

I voted for 9 so 8 more have to form in the next 11 days or so. Should be a snap with the models showing virtually nothing until Sept 1.

One votes is in a good spot. Two is also possible, three is slowly fading away unless we get things going in a hurry. I think what has happened in August will likely spook some voters in the Sept poll.

My 5 vote for August is toast.

Looks like a forecast bust for me. Voted for 5 storms with the possibility of 6! Thought we would see 3 hurricanes with 1-2 becoming major hurricanes. :lol:
