Re: 2011 Hurricane Forecast Update from NOAA
      Fri May 20 2011 12:48 AM

Actually, with such a wide range, its not much of a forecast. Last year NOAA took some flack from some folks for putting out such a vague outlook but it looks like they have done it again. When the range of named storms is from 12 to 18 the expectation is anywhere from just slightly above normal at 12 to tying for the fourth highest total of all time at 18 (the 1969 total). Is the NOAA forecast for a slightly above normal season, an active season or a hyperactive season? CSU and TSR put out a specified number, so I think their approach qualifies as a defined forecast.

Until the end of May you can still submit your own guesstimate of a defined forecast in the 2011 Storm Forum .
