what do you expect this august?

[Mecklenburg]

i would expect a 1999 season-like august with storms the likeness of Bret and Cindy

[Mecklenburg]

probably 4 named storms... but in the last weeks of august... not now...

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

I believe we will have 4 tropical storms with 2 of them becoming hurricanes. Possibly one of them becoming a major.

I expect 2 tropical storms to come out of the cape verdes with two home grown systems. I expect 99L to become the first.

I think probably 4-5 TS, and 3 hurricanes, a pretty active late August IMO where the main action really kicks in towards a mad September IMO full of Cape Verde systems.

I'm going to say 5 named storms, 3 Hurricanes, 1 major. I never speculate on tracks, it causes too much trouble.

Well we've got one TD already out of August....and we are 3 days in!

[Mecklenburg]

the SAL outbreaks have been no help... i won't expect any cape verde system for august and september...

strength, 2 cat 4 storms.... but i expect these to become long tracked fishies in the central atlantic, not in the eastern seabord or carib.
