Well the La Nina is dead so there's that. We will see how fast El Nino builds in but a neutral season could still be plenty interesting if it doesnt. Obviously very early right now but just to see the La Nina gone is news since it's been around the last 3 seasons

Freddy is finally making his final landfall......hopefully. This system has been around since off the NW coast of Australia

How many days combined has this been a named storm?

Also has broken the record for longest TC ever already. Highly impressive

Record-breaking Cyclone Freddy approaches Mozambique — again » Yale Climate Connections

After more cycles of rapid intensification than any other tropical cyclone, Freddy is nearing two other world records for duration and strength.

Freddy is a bizarre, crazy system. Very impressive. I didn’t think cyclones usually transited the Indian Ocean like that, either?

 

[Shaggy]

Another Indian Ocean overperformer. Wasn't suppose to be much but underwent RI and jumped to strong cat 3 borderline cat 4

Hurricane season may be getting an early start

 

[Shaggy]

Hopefully this stretch of coast in Australia is very desolate. They got a monster brewing if the JWTC is correct.

 

[Shaggy]

Forecast to make 130kts tomorrow

This is nuts....

 

[Shaggy]

This is nuts....

Made even more nuts when you consider this wasn't landfalling over a marshy swampy area but more like a desert.

Aint no way this story can be correct. Heading into big El Nino? Am I missing something here

Yeah I wouldn’t expect things to be very active this year with an El Niño starting. Just looking at past years going into El Niño, it would appear that 8-10 named storms should be expected

The systems would have to be early in the season and homegrown and not off Africa. If anything it's going to a front loaded season. I think average to below average season.
