re: Sure we have until June?

Frankly, no. There were those late season hurricanes in the Atlantic that went to places that had never seen a hurricane before (Canary Islands(?), I wasn't paying a lot of attention). The last one, I can't remember the name, just kept hanging around over relatively cool water... everyday the "experts" said it will die tomorrow, and it just fooled around for 4 or more days... no explanation how or why.

It's almost like there is some element of hurricanes that we don't know about, and it is making them more frequent and more powerful. The "experts" seem to be always taken by surprise... but they are sticking to their mantra that it's just cyclical because they are "experts" and that's part of the dogma. To me, so many all time records have been broken in '04 and '05 that common sense tells me that something is up that is extra-cyclical.

Short answer, no, a May hurricane wouldn't surprise me a bit.
