DIMINISHING TROPICS!!!
Looks like this season is coming to a close and fast. Thank God cause we all need it after this active and deadley year. There is absoluteley nothing in the Atlantic basin that even has a chance to become a Hurricane. Every invest has fizzled out and now we will be seeing stronger troughs in the coming weeks to deflect any storms out to sea. Fall will be ariving soon now so we will see ocean temps come dow some and alot more dry air than there is now. The only point of interest most likeley if there is even a week of right ingredients for something to form will be the caribbean. The ocean temps will be the warmest of any areas in the Atlantic especially in the southern part. I think that is the only area that we will be able to see a Cat 1-4 Hurricane form. The GOM will be a long shot for any development of a serious storm. This is the time of year that dry air will persist in the Gulf. We should not let our guard down completeley but in my opinion we will not see much development if any for the rest of this season. I think all of us that live on the coast can start to breathe a little easier now. One of the most active Hurricane seasons on record is coming to an end and winter will be here before we know it. PEACE!!!

yes i thinkyou are wrong too
the season just doesnt stop with the first cold front--eventhough we all want the season to be over--I still feel we will have at least a few more storms and even one or two to threaten the US coastline.

Well, I said about 3 weeks ago that the "season is slowly dying" and I got slammed for it, so it looks like I was right
... You could just see the increase in overall shear and the increase in dry air, coupled with decrease in organized waves. It's going to be tough to get to the greek alphabet, although, I guess it doesn't take much for a couple of weak tropical storms to form and then there we are. Nice to see the season really starting to shut down though. It seems like every wave that forms either encounters shear or dry air or cooler waters. I think it's going to be difficult for all of that to abate this late in the season.

I posted this in another thread...
I ran the climo-curve for the rest of this season based on what has happened up through today. It's guessing either Beta or Gamma...
With that said... I looked at 1995-2004 activity (minus the el Niño year of 1997), post Oct 9th.Code: Select all
Year Storms* Name if added to 2005
1995 03 Beta
1996 03 Beta
1998 02 Alpha
1999 04 Gamma
2000 03 Beta
2001 05 Delta
2002 00 Vince
2003 04 Gamma
2004 02 Alpha
---------------------
Avg 02.89 Alpha - Beta
* Storms on or after October 09th

Bet'cha you will be proven wrong ...
While I agree that it's not over ALLTOGETHER. I think people are nuts thinking that it's going to get incredibly active again. There are plenty of instances where there was no action past October, so it's possible this can be one of those years as well. We got to think possitive people
All I've been seeing is increasing hostile conditions. Now I'm not talking about the type of storms are are here today and gone tomorrow. We know that those can pop up anytime and we have seen a number of those, but how long do they last??? Well obviously, they don't last very long. Conditions just aren't conducive to sustaining them. But to the people thinking that it's going to get active and crazy again and more devastating hurricanes are going to plow into the USA, I think it's obvious that the chance of that will diminish from here on out. Is it possible to get another strong cane slamming into the USA?? Sure it's possible.... but likely? No.....

WAAAY too much shear everywhere...and this time of the year it only gets worse
This sort of post just makes me smile (that is to un-jinx them). "This time of year" IS this time of year...and if nothing else happens, yee haw! But those of us (and we are legion!) who know differently can only say, Watch and Learn (over the period of a few decades

I think we're threw with the Katrinas and Ritas and we even may be done with major hurricane all together this year, but to say in all capital letters screaming at us, "ITS OVER ITS DONE", is stupid and is not even necessary and shouldn't have ever been posted.
Tropical Storms and even another minor hurricane could still impact the United States or other coastal areas in the Atlantic, GOM, Caribbean sometime this month or perhaps even November.
