[HURAKAN]

Yea but a minimal season is a boring season

Look in other basins.

If you like an active season, you just need to monitor the WPAC, if you like tranquil seasons but with some actions, look at the CPAC; but if you are that kind of a person that loves to see a hurricane just one time every century, don't miss the South Atlantic Ocean!!!!

Wow, my hurricane friends it certaintly has been a long time! I have been so bored and have not been visiting this site much since hurricane season ended. It has been a very mild winter here in southeast Louisiana so far. A cold front has came through and made it feel more like Christmas here. We were in T-shirts and shorts over here for the last couple of weeks. All of our cool fronts have been very short lived.

6 more months until Hurricane Season 2005!!! While hurricanes fascinates me, I hope we don't see any major impact for the United States this year. I hope Florida is spared this year. I am planning a trip to Destin, Florida the first week in August. So, I hope everything is good then weatherwise. Anyone has any early thoughts about what states will be affected the 2005 season? Just curious on what everyone has to say.

I hope everyone is having a Happy Holiday Season. I just took my Yorkie to take pictures with Santa at Pet Smart. It was very hard trying to get her to keep still.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!! HAVE A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR OF 2005!!!!!!!

Too early yet for me to come out with any specific numbers, but I do expect average to slightly above average tropical cyclone activity. I dont expect El Nino to be a factor, which would favor tropical cyclone formation, but unfortunately I am not as knowlegable as others on this board as to other inhibiting/favorable conditions. I will use the down time during the off season to further educate myself pre season forecasting. Hopefully by April I will have numbers to post!
