Re: The Bottom Lines

We would need to average about one named storm a week, from now until the end of the season. That seems almost impossible. NOAA sure knows a heck of a lot more about hurricanes than I do.

Does anyone know if they typically issue forecasts that are higher than the actual numbers? I don't want to sound lulled into complacency by this brief respite, but these numbers just seem impossibly high.
