Bill Gray's assistant is taking over the lead role on the forecasts so his name is coming first now.
Later on in the piece he once again attacks the idea 2004-2005 was a result of Global Warming.
Gray is currently in a massive academic flamewar with people blaming those seasons on Global Warming at the moment, which is pretty interesting; both in public responses on their various websites, and a quite vicious battle on a private e-mail listerv for tropical mets I've heard about.

"They" had billboards around some of the main drags here in Orlando late last summer blaming the hurricanes on global warming - and Bush.

I believe that there predictions at this point last year were for an "average" 2005 season.

Who pays these people? There is no way to predict hurricanes, or their frequency a year in advance, and even less the possibility of them being caused by the mythical "Global warming". In fact, this winter is again being forcast as colder than normal, indication of global cooling, like much of the 80's.
I'm sure everyone in the midwest and parts of the north east are really thinking "global warming" while shivering through this 'Nor-easter.

When they can tell me on Tuesday, with any degree of accuracy, if it will rain this weekend, then maybe I'll put some stock in these long-range "forecasts" of major storms. Does anybody have any data handy on just how accurate they've been over past years?

William Gray is wrong every season. Check his past record.
Every season, the MSM quotes him, and every season, he is wrong.
