Luis, Jav & (especially) Rob,

Thanks for the insights. Not trolling on-line at the moment so not looking at sat pix or commentary.

Yea, Rob, I know that it's not inconceivable that something could fire up during our expected MJO reversal, just not expecting it, 'das all [tm HF].

I guess I should be happy if I get JBs rogue storm this weekend...since there's not really anything else out there. And yes, James88, in another forum, I'll give you a report, IF there's anything to report.

Rob, as far as your pointing out (in the storms' forum) the correlation (or lack thereof) between named storms and season totals, I'm also aware, and not at all concerned (still sticking with 14/8/3). Just wish there was SOMETHING, ANYTHING, to give us a tease.

All us weather nuts have been following the tropix since mid-May only to be diasppointed.

Of course, that will make the August fruit that much sweeter.

N-E-who. G'nite all. Still clinging to that vague, slim chance for july action.

Cheers,

LI Phil
