I think the Northern Gulf Coast will see many tropical systems this year especially if they track thru the Yucatan channel. Last year was Florida's turn. 2005 season it will be Alabama, Miss, Florida Panhandle, and upper Texas Coast.Just an opinion but lets see if I'm right. On the Atlantic side I think the Carolina's especially North Carolina.

It sure is more tropical! Already at 10:20a.m., the heat index at Audubon Park in NOLA was 105!

>>based upon what? The Bermuda high being east of where it was last year?

What it looks like to me, and I think it's too early to tell, is that highs are moving off the mid-Atlantic coast every few days and more or less merging with the larger Atlantic Ridge. The models have been portraying this more or less the last 3-4 weeks, and it generally is happening. I don't know if it's a longterm pattern or if things will change as we get into summer, but that's the way it's been so far (at least at the surface level).

Hmmm sometimes gut feelings have to be analyzed meteorologically...
