Lana is actuallly doing well against Shear but it looks like it's finallly over...or is it?madstarr said:Tropical Storm Lana is going to fight upper-level wind shear and might tear system apart. It will miss Hawaii, but increase surf on Hawaiian beaches of the southern coasts of each island.
Atlantic is still quiet, but August isn't suppose to be. An average of 2-3 storms form in August. A similar trend happened with the 2004 season. No storms for the first two months, and then August came with the first named storm. And the 2004 season was pretty active. Could the 2009 season be a repeat of 2004 after similar patterns so far?
I predict 17-20 named storms. 7 hurricanes and 3 of them major.
Well the Dry Air is stronger than Average as well as Shear. Waters are average and there are high Pressures dominiating. I don't think it will be a repeat but could be a bang of devlopment. Plus 17-20 is quite a lot.
