Geez....we're falling behind rapidly!

Grr. Some of you seem to forget how it always goes, lol. June and July to the E-Pac is what August and September is to us. No worries. Heck, we can fall behind 8-2 and easily come back to win the 2005 title.

3 EPAC-2 Atlantic.

...and if you'd like to see that on my super-duper state-of-the-art scoreboard...

I think the Atlantic has a better shot at 20 this year than the East Pacific.

The quickscats show that there is a LLC. With the models hinting at a movement to the northwest. This has alot more convectin then 96L. In is looking good for Dora.

[Scorpion]

Boo EPAC . Lol hopefully Dora goes away because it probably is initiating shear over 96L.
