A look at the Kaplan based AMO indexes for the above years vs current (1999, 2005 and 2012 vs 2017), and then also 2017 compared to the recent low activity years of 2013, 2014 and 2015. Months span from January through July (as August 2017 is not yet updated).

According to Dr. Klotzbach, as of early afternoon on Sep 18th, the N Atlantic basin had generated more ACE to date this season than in any full Atlantic season since 2010 - thus even surpassing the active 2011 and 2012 seasons, to the end of their respective years.

Maria is now a Cat Five, the second of 2017.

Only five other years on record in the Atlantic basin have had two Cat 5s: 1932, 1933, 1961, 2005 & 2007

"Did I see an invest near 50W & 20N today.? (many apologies if incorrect place to post)"




There is an 'Invest' at that location, actually the remnants of Lee. Its chances for regeneration within the next few days are rather low. NHC has reduced their odds from 70% to 30%. If it gets interesting, we will certainly be discussing it again - at least in the Lounge: Lee Lounge . Feel free to add any additional "Invest Lee" related questions or comments there - Ciel

What's interesting about this year is what it portends for the 2018 season.The ENSO neutral condition's we're experiencing now have contributed to the lower shear environment across the basin. With this knowledge it's worth mentioning the La Nina forecast for this winter and potentially what could carry over into next season. I have linked the latest La Nina forecast:

http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso_advisory/ensodisc.pdf

If this forecast pans out we could see this hyperactivity for the duration of this event. La Nina cycles can last up to two years. For readers who are not aware of the effect of La Nina on Hurricane activity in the Atlantic I offer this:

'Dr. William Gray at the Colorado State University pioneered research efforts leading to the discovery of La Niña impacts on Atlantic hurricane activity, and to the first operational long-range forecasts of Atlantic basin hurricane activity. According to this research, the chances for the continental U.S. and the Caribbean Islands to experience hurricane activity increases substantially during La Niña.'

As to the rapid intensification of these storms this year I will have to let someone more knowledgeable speculate on that.
