I'm actually going with Fred as it doesn't seem like activity will resume until the second half of August.

Either Grace or Henri, depending on if there is subtropical development before the tropics/MDR really get going in the first half of August. I think that the first AEW/MDR TC of August will be kind of a sacrificial storm that’ll struggle but clear the way for a wave behind it, which could have significant potential in the Caribbean. If something forms in the subtropics before then, my prediction would be Henri; if not, then it’s Grace.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Good ones. I should have limited this discussion just to the Atlantic. Do y'all have any picks for the Atlantic this year?

I am not a meteorologist, and any posts made by me are not official forecasts or to be interpreted as being intelligent. These posts are just my opinions and are probably silly opinions.

I think it'll be soon, perhaps even Grace or Henri. And otherwise I'm betting on the dreaded I storm, Ida this year.
