Ok summer is one week away and here is my season prediction. First temps will be cooler than usual overall (likely no more than 3 100 degree days) second the precipitation will be higher than usual. Late Summer could be potentially the most dangerous in the past 30 years with 20-30 named storms forecast. Nothing indicates where they will impact if at all (well one hit in technically spring already in florida).

This past Thursday marked why I issue a EXTREME WEATHER WARNING... power winds caused power outages to over 200k customers at one point. Damage was not hurricane scale because while intense and Extreme they were shorter lived. In this area I've issued forecasts but no longer will I try to do that.
