Re: 2002 'below normal'?

Why does NHC (and others) refer to 2002 as a 'below normal' season...there were 11 named storms that season, which based on 1995-2004 is below normal, but still @2 more storms than the previous long-term normal ...Clark, HF?

This seems to be a statement that has perpetuated itself but is not born out by facts....Lili was the last named storm that year.
