interesting similarities between 1933 and 2005

I was just looking at 1933, and much like this year, it was a busy gulf year, and there NO real cape verde long tracked storms. The development was mostly in the vicinity of the lesser antilles and westward. I know 2005 and had a couple cape verdes(if you include Vince)...but it is funny how similar the maps look

interesting but I believe the origins of some of those storms is not well-known, some of them probably forming farther out into the Cape Verde area.

that is a good point...I always wonder how the heck they can call these good records...pre-satellite era...I would thing that even the tracks of some of the older storms are questionable, and certainly the strength. there could be man storms that reached cat 5 strength in the middle of the Carribean or Gulf, and the never would know...odds are a ship the eye or eye-wall of a cat 5 didnt make it, or darn sure wouldnt be able to tell the difference between 120 and 160 mph

Vince was no cv hurricane, it formed within an extratropical trough.

Just think when the Itcz moves south...There might be enough energy to make a season of 3 or 4 systems south of the Equartor.

What happens if a storm crosses the equator? Does it stop and spin the other way?
