Let's see if there are a few more votes for this poll as the end of May outlook by the Colorado State University folks will be released in less than a week.

I still think he's too high. SSTs in the Pacific are almost the same as last year. I.E., no La Nina of significance. SSTs in the Atlantic are definitely cooler. Bermuda high is stronger (more shear). ITCZ much farther south for the end of May (not many early season - june/july storms). Might see one or possibly 2 named storms before the 2nd week of August and a lot fewer October storms this year.

I really don't know whether Dr. Gray should raise or lower his numbers, what i do know is that it does'nt really matter.Last year when Rita was taking aim at the western gulf coast me and my family was absolutely terrified, and i gave no thought at that time to any of the seasonal forecast. I was way too busy getting my family and home prepared.That's why Max Mayfield continues to hammer the fact that it only takes one to hit one of our areas to make it a bad season.

All is expectation about how the forecast of the end of May will be like in terms of the numbers and about the steering pattern.In a matter of hours we will know so stay tuned to Talking Tropics forum as the information about the forecast will be posted first here than in other boards around the net.The Colorado State University outlook will be posted at a new thread and not in this one.As soon as the outlook is released this poll will close.
