Is it OK that I forgot? Is the show archived so that I can listen to tonight's show later?

He usually archives shows after they have finished. I usually direct link through Mike's website http://www.tropicalupdate.com

Here it is CVW. However, he has not put tonights show on there yet, but he will!

By the way, sorry if I am slow at remembering things such as listening to Mike's show every time! I'm a pathetic person at speed memory.

Actually a less active early season can mean a more active later season, like August, so I wouldnt mind seeing some weak TSs forming around the GOM and Atlantic in June or July to cool the waters down.

i know its a joke, but logicialy, 325 MPH winds would equal around a cat 10-15 storm.

Actually yes:

CAT 15:

(5/155) = (15/x)

x = (155 * 15)/ 5 => 465 mph

(5/155) = (10/x)

CAT 10:

x = (155 * 10)/5 => 310 mph

Range:

{310, 465}
