Gah

Summary
The relatively quiet hurricane season we’ve been enjoying is not going to last. A very active period will start, as soon as the atmosphere destabilizes a bit more. If one believes the long-range 2-week outlook from the GFS model, the current quiet period should last another 4-12 days. Around August 21, I expect it will appear that a switch has been thrown, and the Atlantic will be very active indeed. Expect our first hurricane in the Atlantic by August 26, and a very active September. However, I do expect we will get many recurving storms that will miss land, and that this hurricane season will be similar to the ones we experienced in 1995-2003.

He could be way wrong. And the ‘1995-2003’ does nothing to make me feel better. I’ll post why shortly.

    Come on up north. Audrey and Dave have offered use of the vermont retreat as needed. Amazinf how nice she can be after a few cocktails. Of course there is nothing to freaking do there except golf and buy maple syrup.
