No hurricanes. And it will be September in a day or two...

Only Tropical Storm Andrea was a big deal.

Could break 1950's record if we don't get a hurricane until after 9/11.

This is odd. Especially since the conditions right now are SO favorable. Hm...

All I have to say is watch out for the 'I' storm. Hurricane Irene (2011) then Hurricane Isaac (2012). Just watch it. Ingrid could be big this year.

I read a tidbit from AccuWeather that said since 1960, only 5 years had no August hurricanes; those 5 years did however have significant September hurricanes.

Catch my drift.

Again. Andrea was bad.

Hurricanes peak in 36 year cycles (as a combination of many factors, including ocean currents, solar maxima, air currents, etc.). We are in the off period for the Atlantic. From what I've seen, worldwide hurricanes are fairly steady year after year, with the locations just oscillating. All that made-up global cooling (1970s-1980s), global warming (1990s-2000s), and climate change (2010s), hoopla has nothing to do with it, since hurricanes form from the temperature differentials between the tropics and the arctics. If the world temperature would truly rise or fall, the differential would remain largely unchanged.

I'm predestined to have free will.

Though it doesn't make a difference that we have entered the peak of the season and... No hurricanes. At all. Seriously, over the last 5 years, this year will be the laughing-stock.

Here is the per-year listing of how many named storms were in the Atlantic each year. Keep in mind that satellite and airplane based hurricane tracking has only existed a fraction of this time, so anything more than a few decades old is probably not accurate.

Whoa! That's a lot of 19's!!
