    5 hurricanes actually, none made landfall in the US though. Most curled round heading for us

    So in future when we get an el nino be it weak moderate or strong we can expect fewer hurricanes making landfall in the states,carribean due to shear,Ireland will usually bare the brunt of the atlantic as was the case and a milder than avg winter.ie:2006/2007 winter.

    Back to op,depending on el nino again(which i still think is present)nobody knows for sure,well least your man got his name in the papers:rolleyes:

    They are talking about the La nino which is totally different to el nino,in fact its the opposite.A la nino would indicate a more sway to tropical storms/ hurricanes with less shear and more landfalls while when there is no la/el Nino at all in 2005 season look what happened.

    Yes, I meant to say 'La nino' read it as 'El'. :)

    Actually its "La Niña" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Nina

    Given that its forecast this year - past experience would indicate a more lively hurricane season this year.
