Tropical Storm in the Gulf next week???
I've notice that the GFS has been cosistent on forming a strong Low with 2 Isobars around it in the Gulf. Now im not sure if this is a tropical or subtropical system. Or if this is a strong Low. But no matter what it is if this verifies the souther states( Texas,Louisiana,Mississippi,Alabama,Georgia,and Florida could see a MAJOR flooding problem. Note: The GFS wants to stall the system in the North central Gulf.

You only have 5 more days for that excuse...
Actually the '05 season ended November 30. IF and only IF a new storm forms after that, it starts with the '06 names.

Not true, Although the season runs from June 1 - November 30, the naming scheme is for the entire year.. ie: If a storm develops tomorrow, we would continue using the greek alphabet, and if that storm remained a storm into 2006, it would keep the Greek name.. Now, if that storm were to form into a Tropical Storm on Jan 1, 2006, it would become the "A" storm in the 2006 name list. So you're incorrect in what name would be used for a Tropical Cyclone developing in 2005, regardless of rather or not it is in 'season' or not.

That is correct... the season isn't technically over until 00Z Jan. 1st. (7pm EST Dec 31st)

If that was the case, then 2003's Tropical Storm Odette (formed December 4th) would have been named Alex and 2003's Tropical Storm Peter (formed December 7th) would have been named Bonnie.
