Has the season even started yet?
Some models currently indicating a landfall from Georgia to Carolinas, though North Florida is not ruled out.
June 1 is the official start. This must be a teaser.

we’re suppose to have a lot of rain by Monday or so...
I used to be passionate about the weather. Now, I just hate most of it.
curiously, the weather reporter here on our TV news states the name of this storm will be Bonnie. I do not recall a storm at all recently with the letter A.
I am always prepared and so just don’t pay much attention.
I do not let rain affect my plans, but am flexible too.
Sounds like it is to be North of me so just going to check water supplies etc. and forget it.
It officially starts in FL from Jun 1- Nov 30. So far nothing spectacular, though this spring seems a little cooler than average. Around Tampa it barely hit 90 during the day which seems unusual for this time of year.
If you want more, we’ll be happy to send you some from Texas. Lake Conroe, just north of Houston, reportedly had 6 1/2 inches in an hour tonight! Enough already!
“Alice” back in January.
Middle and eastern Tennessee can use the rain. http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/Home/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?TN
Trump’s fault!!
(since everything bad used to be Bush’s fault, we may as well start getting used to everything bad being blamed on Trump)
thanks. I had forgotten about that one. Am on the west coast of Florida and it has been so long since a hurricane called here I sometimes think I live in Iowa.
The weather is “somewhat better organized since yesterday, and the circulation of the low has become a little better defined”.
These guys should be standing on street corners with signs saying “will predict hurricanes for food”. They must be bored to tears. But those federal dollars just keep on coming.
WHOLLY CRAP!!!
IT MIGHT RAIN!!!
