I remember one year, about 10 years ago, we went through
so many named storms that we were down around V or so.

A fellow on the news said that this is normal. It's a 30 year
cycle for hurricanes. We have STARTED the busy cycle. YIKES!

30 years fairly quiet. 30 years busy. 30 years fairly quiet. etc.

They make a dangerous couple...

One scientist on the news today said that it had nothing
to do with Global Warming. He said it's a normal 30 year
cycle for hurricanes.

I'm sure other scientists will disagree and say it's global warming.

Not really. I work with a guy from Barbados and he explained it as, "the weather is not hot, nor cold, perfect weather to make hurricanes."

The year with so many named storms was 1995...

1Gov, what swim team do you swim for? I used to swim with Mac, but I dropped out and are now doing waterpolo.... oh, and by the way, a NOAA meterologist came to our school and told us that the last 30 years have been "hurricane quiet", and that pretty soon Florida should be pounded frequently.
