Wow! Down to the single digits already... I feel like we're counting down to the New Year counting down to the beginning of the season. And we'll have a great time tracking this year's storms, as long as they stay out to sea.

**SPECIAL NHC/TPC PRESS RELEASE**

The Hurricane Season of 2006 has been cancelled due to too many storms over the last two seasons. Any low pressure areas that form this summer will not be named and will be completely ignored in the hope that they go away. Hurricane Season will resume on June 1st, 2007.

Or something like this:

**SPECIAL NHC/TPC PRESS RELEASE**

The Hurricane Season of 2006 has been cancelled due to too many storms over the last two years. Any low pressure areas that for this summer will be arrested and thrown in jail for forming. Failure to do so would be a horrible mistake. Any area's of low pressure forming into a tropical depression, tropical storm or hurricane and heads towards the United States WILL BE SHOT and any survivors WILL BE SHOT AGAIN!. Hurricane Season will resume on June 1st, 2007.

2006 Season has arrived!!
