It's not quite pulling numbers out of a hat, but it's close here are my thoughts:
I think the current trend of relatively above average SST's will continue for the summer months. Enhancing any storms that make it to hurricane status.. With neutral conditions otherwise, I think we're going to see the following breakdown:
18 Depressions
14 Tropical Storms and 2 Subtropical Storms (16 total)
10 Hurricanes
6 Major Hurricanes
Ok now why these numbers?
let's look at the last few years:
Cat 04 03 02 01 00
TS 15 16 13 15 15
HC 09 07 04 09 08
So I'm fully expecting about the same TS/ST development. I'm also expecting anything that gets going will have a generally neutral development but with warm SST's will still be able to ramp up to a minimal hurricane (ergo, the high number of hurricanes projected). I also expect the hurricanes to have enough warm ocean water to reach major hurricane status about half the time. So, it'll be busy, I really expect to see one Subtropical storm at the start of the season and one at the end of the season. That's also symptomatic of both warmer SST's in colder weather, leading to hybrid/transitional systems, as well as better understanding and diagnosis of when a storm is a Subtropical system. My gut is also telling me that 6 Major hurricanes seems high, but Last year there was 5, and it seems viable to have one more.
Take care and I'll be wishcasting for all fishspinners and a lot of fireworks but no damage.

I will say 15/ 8/ 4. It's warm and getting warmer. First named storm will be around June 11th, because that's when I leave from Florida for Vermont and after the Treasure Coast getting slapped by two last year, why not have some weather to worry about while on vacation?

This was originally posted by RABBIT...i had tried to move it to this forum, but i screwed something up...here are his predictions for 2005:
"JUNE 1S
JULY 2S/1H
AUG 4S/3S/2MH
SEP 5S/3H/2MH
OCT 3S/2H/1MH
NOV 1S
total: 16/9/5
i will not alter the monthly forecasts at all after now but the overall numbers will be subject to change, since they are going by month
(ex.--i expect 9 storms after 8-31, totaling 16; if we have 3 in July and 6 in August, the total forecast for the season will be 18)
that said, i will also raise the expected number to 17 if Adrian does indeed become "
again...this post belongs to Rabbit.
Rabbit...i apologize for screwing up your post placement...i'm still trying to get used to moving posts to their appropriate place...

With the new information I have seen of late, I must raise my numbers to 14/9/5. I initially thought we would have a more "normal" season, with 13/7/4. It has become very apparent that there is almost no chance of any EL Nino beginning soon enough to slow this season and with SST's continuing to rise and already being above normal it appears we could be in for a record year in some aspects.

Just a reminder that you only have a couple of days left if you wish to join in on this exercise. If you have posted your seasonal forecast elsewhere, please repeat it on this thread before June 1st. Looks like another busy season, but I'll leave my numbers as is.
Cheers,
ED

I`ve been watching some convection moving into the western gulf today. Its part of the same weather system that moved through Charleston this morning I believe. Is it possible that anything tropical might evolve from those storms in the near future ?...Weatherchef
