May 20, 2021 - NOAA's Climate Prediction Center is predicting another above-normal Atlantic hurricane season. Forecasters predict a 60% chance of an above-normal season, a 30% chance of a near-normal season, and a 10% chance of a below-normal season. However, experts do not anticipate the historic level of storm activity seen in 2020.

On its last day, the site received just 1,500 shares or comments on Facebook and Twitter — a staggering drop for someone whose every tweet once garnered hundreds of thousands of reactions.

Keep an eye out for something spinning up over cuba and south fl on June 13/14 latest model run . Still way out , and I know they spin every up up .

There goes a narwhal!! LOL!

Didn't see that but saw a few lows forming off of NC, MA etc heading NE of Bermuda (well offshore), with some back fetch heading SW (kinda our way), but most heading NE - with us in the rear view mirror.. .. Winds may be favorable, but swell prob weak.. Don't even want to think of any cane 'activity' happening in our neck of the woods - tired - need a rest..

I hear ya

2-hr window of great cane surf in the midst of 4-5 days of hurricane prep. No thanks

Next week, models show something in the Gulf and hitting Florida Panhandle, then up to hatteras and out to sea. Long range! from nhc:

For the forecast, weak high pressure ridging will remain over
the central Gulf of Mexico through early next week supporting
mainly gentle to moderate anticyclonic winds across the basin. A
trough of low pressure is expected to form early next week over
the SW Gulf. Subsequent slow development of this system is
possible as it drifts northwestward to northward.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 AM EDT Sat Jun 12 2021

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. An area of cloudiness and showers has developed over the Bay of
Campeche and the adjacent land areas. Slow development of this
system is possible over the next several days as it moves slowly
and erratically, and a tropical depression could form in this area
by the middle of next week. Due to the slow motion, regardless of
development, heavy rainfall is possible over portions of Central
America and southern Mexico. Please consult products from your
local meteorological service for more information.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.
