I say mid jun around june 11th or within that week to 18th. Will likely form in the gulf or the northern caribean. Close to home at least. Few weeks to go to see if it is anywhere near correct.

Early or Mid June. formation around Peurto Ricio (i know that is spelt wrong), and make it up to cat. 1. it would head NE until it gets up to around GOM, turn north, and get caught in the gulf stream.], which turns it west. In the GOM, it will undergo medium wind shear ans weaken to a mid TS. the gulf stream will slow down a little bit as high pressure builds in the Gulf. It will stall over Central Florida. the High pressure front will slowly move towards florrida, pushing the TS, or at this point, TD, SEward off the coast of Broward County. it could cause 4-6 inches of rain over CFl, while a little more will be found over SFL.

Christy that was the 6z which is not the best time to look at long range models.The 12z and the 00z are the best ones as those have a more complete data.

there have been many years in the past that don't see a named
storm until late in the season... "92 is a good example.

Gut feeling too. statisticlly speaking... after 04 and 05... it's very possible
we may have a very slow/late year.

Hope your right :) Give everyone a break for a little while. My gut feeling though is somewhat opposite. Mid june I belive the season may get started. I say it will be active too. Total of around 15-18 storms.

It's not a claim but a real fact that the 12z and the 00z runs are the best ones to look for as those get feeded with the more complete data.Mike Watkins in one of the past Talking Tropics shows of 2005 talked about that.
