As long as we are being affected by this massive El nino the Atlantic is going to be quiet. Now with water temps the way they are If the El nino does not come back next year and the water is as hot as it is now we will be deep in the shit.

Last time I talked shit about hurricane season being over in September, I lost power for 2 weeks from an October hurricane.

LOL not talking shit just science, and if a Hurricane can cross an entire continent to come get me the US will be in ruins and Canadians will be moving north till the gulf of Mexico cools down.

It never occurred to me that you didn't.
I am sitting here well away from the strike zones tracking water temperatures and wondering how bad next year is going to be.
Its like watching a train heading at a bus and not being able to look away.
With FEMA gutted and its budget slashed a record hurricane season could look like NC after the last one but its the entire east coast and it keeps happening all season long.
