As for a hypothetical situation, say the name Ana were to form and get retired, would the A name change in the Atlantic for 2015 as well?

No since it would be a EPAC storm I believe

The only names that cannot come into conflict are the Atlantic and EPAC, the central Pacific can have names that appear in the Atlantic list.

SST's are really cold off of California atm.

Unless Karina is our last major hurricane of the season, the NHC prediction for only 6 major hurricanes is now surprisingly low.

7 just sounds good to me IMO. I felt it would be a little weird forecasting only 4 Cat 1's-Cat 2's. Probs will get more than 7.

I was thinking of this again, does anyone think this EPAC season is still in for a possible Category 5?

An area of low pressure is forecast to form well south-southwest of
the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula by Saturday.
Some gradual development of this system is possible early next week
while the system moves generally northwestward.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 day...low...20 percent.
