	Climate Prediction Center - Atlantic Hurricane Outlook
		An important measure of the total seasonal activity is NOAA’s Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index, which accounts for the collective intensity and duration of Atlantic named storms and hurricanes during the hurricane season.
		For the 2007 Atlantic hurricane season, the ACE index is expected to be in the range of 125% to 210% of the median.
		Hurricane seasons during 1995-2005 have averaged 15 named storms, 8.5 hurricanes, and 4 major hurricanes, with an average ACE index of 179% of the median.

	1992 Atlantic hurricane season - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The most notable storm of the season was Hurricane Andrew, the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history until Hurricane Katrina in the 2005 season.
		Hurricane Andrew was by far the most intense hurricane of the year, and one of only two Category 5 hurricanes in the 1990s.
		In 1992, meteorologists at the NHC originally classified Andrew as a category four hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale with 145 mph winds.

	Hurricane Andrew - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It raged from August 16 to August 28 during the 1992 Atlantic hurricane season, impacting the northwestern Bahamas, southern Florida in the greater Miami area, and south-central Louisiana.
		Andrew was only the third Category 5 hurricane to hit the United States, the previous ones being Hurricane Camille (which hit Mississippi and Louisiana in August 1969) and the Labor Day Hurricane of 1935 (which struck the Florida Keys in September 1935).
		The hurricane caused $26.5 billion (1992 USD) in damage in the United States, of which $1 billion occurred in Louisiana and the rest in south Florida.

	2005 Atlantic hurricane season - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hurricane Epsilon formed as a tropical storm on November 29 in a hostile environment in the middle of the Atlantic.
		Hurricane Rita struck near the same area, re-flooded New Orleans, and caused extensive damage along the coastlines of Louisiana and Texas; total damages are estimated at $9.4 billion.
		The season was the first season to use 'V' and 'W' names, and, when the season ran out of official alphabetical names after the use of Wilma, forecasters resorted to using letters from the Greek alphabet for the first time (although Alpha and Delta had been used for subtropical storms in the 1970s).

		The North Atlantic Oscillation, or NAO, is the fluctuation in 500 millibar heights in the northern Atlantic, primarily between western Europe, Iceland, and Greenland.
		All four landfalls occurred from hurricanes that originated in the southwest Caribbean Sea in October, a region that is expected to be highly favorable this season due to the lack of an El Nino and a strong ATC.

	Summary of the 2004 Atlantic Hurricane Season
		When the 2004 Atlantic Hurricane Season was completed, there were 15 named storms including one subtropical storm named Nicole, 9 hurricanes, and 6 major hurricanes, which caused over $40 billion dollars in damage.
		William Gray of Colorado State and NOAA both indicated a season that would be similar to the previous two in terms of the number of named storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes with Dr. Gray increasing his forecast totals somewhat from his first season forecast done in December, 2004.
		Hurricane Jeanne was a bit later in September, but it still had the fury of a classic Cape Verde Season storm.

	Summary of the 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season
		The 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season was not as active as recent years, but still had a good deal of storms, and many of those made landfall over some point on the United States coastline.
		The four hurricanes in 2002 fell slightly below the average number of hurricanes in a season, which is five while the number of major hurricanes was also slightly lower than the average of 2.3 per season.
		The 2002 Atlantic Hurricane Season was dominated mostly by a large number of named storms.

	Interior Landscape Business :: News :: Blockbuster Atlantic Hurricane Season Closes
		MIAMI — Everything about the Atlantic hurricane season was big — lots of powerful storms that spawned hundreds of deadly tornadoes, many deaths, an unprecedented onslaught on Florida, a huge damage toll and millions evacuated.
		Florida took the brunt of the damage in the United States, with hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne walloping the state within a six-week span, the first time a single state was hit by four hurricanes in one season since 1886, NHC officials said.
		Hurricane Ivan was a nightmare for the oil industry, thrashing through the Gulf of Mexico's most productive oil and gas fields and wrecking platforms and undersea pipelines.

		Accumulated Cyclone Energy or ACE is a measure used by NOAA to express the activity of Atlantic hurricane seasons.
		The ACE is calculated by summing the squares of the estimated sustained velocity of every active tropical storm (wind speed 35 knots or higher), at six hourly intervals.
		Above-normal season: An ACE value above 103 (117% of the median), provided at least two of the following three parameters exceed the long-term average: number of tropical storms (10), hurricanes (6), and major hurricanes (2).

	NASA - 2005: A Hurricane Season 'On Edge'
		Hurricane Katrina was the costliest hurricane to ever strike the U.S. with at least $80 billion in damage, and two others (Wilma and Rita) made the top 10.
		Researchers have made remarkable advances in predicting hurricane tracks and landfall, however, forecasting changes in a hurricane's intensity continues to be a challenge because the physics behind such explosive intensifiers is still not well understood.
		The Atlantic Basin is in the active phase of a multi-decadal cycle that began in 1995, in which conditions in the ocean and atmosphere, including abnormally warm sea-surface temperatures and low wind shear, provide the necessary ingredients for hurricane formation.

	Welcome to the Florida Keys and Key West Official Tourist Development Website
		Because hurricane forecasting is not an exact science, NHC forecast tracks of the center line have high error rates, especially forecasts issued more than three days ahead of a potential strike.
		The primary purpose of the four- and five-day track forecast map is that the hurricane center wants people to simply be aware of the storm and to begin thinking how they will react in the event it continues to proceed in their direction.
		Historically, a hurricane only impacts the Keys once in four to five evacuations because the forecast error track rate (the projected path of the storm) is so great at the time of the evacuation order.

		Several other hurricane predictions have also noted that the eastern seaboard is at a high risk of a major hurricane this year based on historical data showing that in a year after a major Gulf Coast hurricane, the east coast is often hit hard the next year.
		A tropical storm or hurricane watch was possible for sections of the Keys by Monday morning, meteorologists said as the hurricane center urged residents of southern Florida, the Florida Keys and Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula to monitor the storm.
