My 1st thought. “We” didn’t do squat.
We have been fortunate so far yes....but that’s about it....and it ain’t over yet either.
Predicting the future - with respect to very dynamic systems like weather - is a fool’s errand. BUT - a radical change in the pattern would have to develop, and quite quickly, for there to be anything approaching even a slow season. Was it you that posted the link saying September is the peak month for hurricanes in a previous post? Sure - but it’ll be over in a week and there are no new cells in the 7 day forecast, so right now it looks like not only have we passed the season peak (mid-September) but we’re going to exit the peak month with no hurricanes, few storms, and going into seasonal decline.
Again - I’m not predicting anything - but this is a well over 100 year record being broke. That’s not a trivial occurrence.
