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.

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

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

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

Hear hear to all the harrumphing. The problem with this kind of “prediction” is the same problem with polling (BTW see my tagline) — there is no “confidence level” mentioned so many assume that the number of hurricanes will definitely be in the 13-17 range.
In fact, we should probably assume that the highest confidence level is at 15, but that “highest confidence” might be 30%. 14 and 16 might be 25%, etc., until we get all the subtotals adding up to 100%.

EVERY YEAR they say this. Eventually they will be right. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

....didn’t we hear this before - even if it turns out to be true, for those of us not on the coast, should we panic now or later?

NOAA recommends those in hurricane-prone regions to begin their preparation plans.
Maybe buy that plywood now. :)
And water jugs can be refilled with tap water...so if the stores run out of bottled water, it is not the end of the world.
