Hey Benny, that quote about the dust came from the NHC discussion page. So what you are saying is they are making up excuses for why there has been no hurricane development. I don't know what you mean by the Cape Verde season, but I have been seeing numerous waves coming across from Africa in the last month as I have been sitting down here on the South coast of Puerto Rico. I recently shifted over to the East coast between the last two waves yet no hurricane has developed from any of them. Just a steady succession of wave after wave. The two significant weather factors that I have also noted were the African dust bands as they swept West on the Trades over the Atlantic, and the shear which I assumed was caused by a dipping of jet stream air out of the Westerlies into the Gulf and the Caribbean. Both of these seemed to be at odds with each other. Fortunately the happy consequence has been no hurricanes, so I am getting bored with this situation and contemplating turning my back on it and heading off to the homeland for some time off with the family. Perhaps my boredom is a bit premature.
