TD 20 sure looks impressive. I'll bet the hurricane hunters do find TS winds this afternoon. Some year, huh? Ana in April and Odette??? in December. Happy Holidays and Happy Tracking at the same time.

As of 1:00, our tempest is still just a TD. I'll bet by 5:00 if not 11:00 we have Odette. That will make 15 TS or Hurricanes in one season. Busting everyone's forecasts in the process.

HMMM!!! Moving NNE and we have low pressure zipping along the gulf coast, amd some indication of a coastal storm developing off GA...any thoughts of the heat/energy from Odette being caught up into that and firing off a really big NE'er this weekend? EDS

Odette is now officially Odette, as of the 4:00 update. Fifteenth named storm of the year. I sure as h--- hope Odette doesn't just add to my weekend misery.

2003 has been pretty amazing. We had an April and a December storm. StormsFury at S2K did some research and found 1 year that also had post and pre season acitivity. I think that was 1867 (Civil War era).
If I don't get back with everyone, and Kevin, be sure to check the Everything and Nothing forum at least by Monday, have a great Christmas/New Years.

Lil my thought when I saw this was the Oct 1991 storms, ( the Perfect Storm). I think the next system to come across may catch TS
