Is there information comparing previous predictions to actual number of storms?

They predicted above normal last year, too, and it did not happen. They revised their forecast about 1/3 of the way thru the year, so that they could claim to be on target.

Doomed. Bush's Fault.

Hopefully, Halliburton can pay off Karl Rove in time to get him to knock the weather machine down to "3" or so.

May 22, 2006 — NOAA today announced to America and its neighbors throughout the north Atlantic region that a very active hurricane season is looming, and encouraged individuals to make preparations to better protect their lives and livelihoods.”

How many Hurricaines did we see in 2006?

“The 2006 Atlantic hurricane season was an event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation. This season was unusual in that no hurricanes made landfall in the United States of America.[1] It started on June 1, 2006, and officially ended on November 30, 2006. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin.” Wikipedia

Wonder if they got a kickback on the raised insurance premiums for the losses that never occurrred?

If there is no Vegas Line on Hurricanes then this is not a credible prediction.

Notice that they graphic calls it a "Favorable" African Easterly Jet. On some level, these people actually want hurricanes.

75 percent chance that the Atlantic Hurricane Season will be above normal this year

Half the children will be above average.

Good thing they didn’t predict below average, or we’d be in trouble.
