Take those charts out from the closet and leave them close to you because I think we will do plenty of tracking this season as all indications suggest.

I still have my tracking the eye software from last year. It's fun to use even if you have to plot the storms yourself when your free trial expires

Feel free to use these as much as you want, but put them on your own server as I only have 2.5 GB of bandwidth for the month on Photobucket. Thanks!

BTW I have bigger versions available if you would like them.

Only 20 days to the official start of the season and the question pending is if we will see an early start in the first days of june or the first storm will wait a while to develop but time will tell.

and the EPAC SSTs are ready for development as well. I do think the EPAC will actually get going prior to the Atlantic's first named system..as it should be.

Thanx for the kind welcome(s). :)

Ok folks season now is really around the corner but the question is when and where will the first storm form.I have 2 polls about those questions so go and vote those who haven't done so.

When may 31 arrives I will make the countdown hour by hour to make that day exciting as the hours decrease until midnight. :)
