I've posted in another forum here... can't remember what I posted tho am sure Ed does...

Interesting reading the thoughts here as we watch two pre-season storms form close in and affect land.

I think the thoughts are more interesting the number and I'd like to ask how many of the storms would affect land (US in particular) as an added number of interest.

I think I said 13/6/4 but would also think on upping that first number if another early storm forms.

Early storms form for many reasons, in many areas of the basin.

So far I've driven through weather from both Alberto and Beryl, am wondering on where Chris will form.. and how many will affect land as I think the pattern favors continued close in forming storms... maybe I'm wrong. Time will tell.
