It's coming WAY too fast but I'm prepared for it. I wouldn't get caught unprepared like I did last year with Charley.

I must say I am looking forward to the upcoming season.

I still see damage from last year as I drive through Central Florida everyday. My neighbors roof was fixed just two weeks ago. I got used to seeing the blue tarp. I wonder if we get another cat 1 or 2 just how many trees would go down this year compared to last? You would think anything left was pruned and younger , stronger rooted.

BRING IT ON! :)

Bring on hurricane season 2005.. Plus.. I wanna try my forecasting abilities again this year and see if I can do all right..

Remember last year when most of ya thought I was nuts that Jeanne would do a loop and hit Fla


I wouldn't be so happy to bring on the hurricane season being a Wal-Mart associate. I remember unloading pallets of water (one truck with 20 PALLETS of water :eek: ), batteries, flashlights. And another thing, they wont let you go home until it is almost too late. I remember when Lili was coming, they wanted to stay open. The store manager says "Well I lived in Texas, it is not gonna be bad, yada yada yada." They finally closed it when it was almost too late. I didn't get any sleep that night cause after I got home, I had to run calls with the fire dept.

Hi guys, it's been a while since I posted here last time, but by April I'll be entering this forum. The winter forum I can say has lost its people because its completely over. Plus this one dude is always on my case, he never even takes my opinions into consideration, I hope it's different once I become a regular member of the forum.

Only 62 days left is incredible. I remember when I saw this thread and the countdown was I think 118 or 119 days until the season.

Unfortunately I will be in Europe during the season so I will miss a lot. Hopefully the storms can hold off just like 2004 so I can be here when the storms really fire up, I'm leaving July 1st and returning August 22nd so I think I will return right in the middle of the season which is good. I really want the storms to wait until early August, but that's probably unlikely.

What do you think?

poking in to say hello

#89 Postby Weatherboy1 » Fri Apr 01, 2005 5:19 pm

Well, now that it's April and Dr. Gray's forecast is out, I figure I'll be poking in every so often to say hello and see what's going on. I hope everyone made it through winter okay and is looking forward to another season of late nights watching WAY too many satellite loops and model runs! :lol:

When you consider then that is only about 43 days until the E. Pacific hurricane season begins it seems even closer. Only a short distance from one to the other.

Wow time has moved very rapidly as it was the other day that I made this countdown thread with 120 days left and now we are down to 50 days left.
