2006 predictions
Fri May 05 2006 07:59 PM

From a May 5th MarketWatch article:

"Speaking to a room packed with energy executives in Houston, AccuWeather's Joe Bastardi predicted that one tropical storm and five hurricanes -- at least three at Category 3 or worse -- will slam into the nation's shores between now and late November, the unofficial end of the season.

Bastardi, the weather service's chief hurricane tracker, accurately predicted last August that New Orleans would bear the brunt of Hurricane Katrina as it grew to a top-level Category 5 storm."

Hopefully someone from MarketWatch will eventually find this forum, this post, and make the connection as to why it was in the humor section.
