I think regardless the GOM "should" see a slight increase in tropical activity this year compared to last. Not like a 2005 yr but more of a 2007, 2008 year.Ed Mahmoud wrote:.................................. ***DOUBLE POST ALERT***

Well, if the ridge wanders a bit North but stays in the same general longitude, we'd get on the underside for occasional disturbances that might ride over the ridge, have a bit pinch off, and come back from the West. The ridge does tend to wander Northward, although it seems early this year, making me wonder if that is indeed the longitude the ridge will establish.
If that is the longitude of the mean ridge this Summer, almost all MDR storms will recurve safely East of the US, but any late developers or low latitude runners could make the Gulf. But I think this is too early to be the Summer ridge, although extended dryness could start a feedback.
