Re: subtropics

I really meant no supressing (or enhancing) effect from an El Nino / La Nina point of view over the season as a whole. Other factors would determine total basin activity with no real seasonal influence (positive or negative) from equatorial Pacific SSTs. A weak El Nino may eventually kick in, but probably not until October - or later.
