I think it's time to start this poll as you never know if another very early Anatype system forms well before the season starts.The poll will run until March 31rst on the time that this thread was made (8:13 PM EDT) Remember that after this poll is closed,another one opens the next day,and that is the numbers poll

My vote goes for June 11-20.

Cries of "this seasons a bust" will be well under way by late-June.

I voted the last week of July. Remember last season when Colin didn't even form until August, yet we made it all the way to Tomas? Yup. :)

I think we will see an early start to the season around June 1-10. However, I do think we could see some questionable areas in May kind of like the Memorial Day weekend storm in 2009(Invest 90L)

I didn't add March as one of the options as we have 90L. :double:
