Gary Gray from millennimumweather.com issues 2005 forecast

http://www.millenniumweather.com/tropical/season.html

The most interesting part IMO of his outlook is about his landfall probabilities.I noticed that he has not mentioned Dr Grays April forecast of 13/7/3 instead he is commenting about the December outlook for the 2005 season which was 11 named storms,6 hurricanes and 3 major ones.And Gary Gray has 11/6/3 as his numbers for this outlook. Any comments about his outlook are welcomed.

I like the way they breakdown the risk assesments. Easy to understand.

I hate trying to navigate that site. I don't really much care for his work since the verification always outranks the success and predictions. He did get one thing right though, 2002's forecast was awful. So I give him credit for mentioning that. I don't mean to be overly negative but I hate the Trantech model as well. Heh.

But as he sees it, the Carolinas, Texas, LA/MS/AL and FL are all at reasonable risk this year. Who would have thought as much? :)

Thanks for the link.

He says Caroliinas are high risk. My belief is the central N Carolina coast is highest risk. The Morehead City/ Atlantic Beach area are over due....

Well I took my first serious shot at long range forecasting last month and Dr Gray and I both agreed on an increased threat to the Carolinas and New England as well as the Canadian Maritimes He didnt mention Long Island but I think thats a given here. Im not sure I agree with an increased risk to Bermuda though assuming the Bermuda High is still forecast to be stronger than normal.
