I'm guessing four. Being conservative given what has been happening in the season thus far.

Re: How many named systems will form in September?
I voted for 4. I am not convinced of and explosion of activity, but it does seem likely for at least an uptick. With a bit of luck, the harm potential will be low. (At least, I hope so -- need to sell the house!
) Of course, I really have no idea what I am talking about, so there is that...

This season has been a total bust, which is a good thing as we all need a break from natural disasters. I voted for 2 as the season is just about done. wake me up when the season starts

Re: How many named systems will form in September?
This is the last call to vote in poll for those who still have not done so. Is a sure bet 96L will not develop into a named storm before this day is out so take that into consideration. Poll closes at 3:12 PM EDT.
