Even in a slow season, it only takes one to ruin your day. Being upstate, Hurricane season was never anything but a mild curiosity, until I started dating my current SO. She was emotionally traumatized by Katrina, and is on edge the whole summer and fall. I always pull for a below average season for her sake


I think a lot of people fall in that category. I lived through Andrew and then worked Katrina/Rita. I got reassigned after 2005 and didn't even look at the tropics for a couple of years.

They are almost never correct.

Peej can save us with a prediction of an above average season. Don't let us down, Peej!

Don't forget we have a few months of midwest stormchasing before Hurricane season gets in full swing.

March is looking pretty calm at this point. I would plan to chase later than normal. This will probably be another below normal year, esp. if the AAM continues to be more nina like and we get parades of positive tilted throughs

Exactly.

I like when they're wrong about activity levels, they just revise the forecast in mid-season.

Helpful generator tip.

Before bringing your genny in for repair cuz it won't start, try turning the in-line fuel valve to on.

You're welcome

I suspect we will see many variations of this type of article in the coming months.

Major hurricane drought nears decade milestone — will it continue?



Still, a pretty fascinating streak, esp. when viewed as a statistics problem. The historical record isn't large enough to account for the current streak. There is a really interesting paper by Hall from NASA that calculates the current streak to be a once in a 177 year event. It is behind a pay wall but for those that do have access to Geophysical Research Letters the article is The Frequency and Duration of US Hurricane Droughts.
