Hurricane Central 2008

[Stephen]

Sounds like an indication that this season will be a busy one.

It's already a busy start. However, just from that you can't say for sure what the rest of the season has in store.

[TWCToday]

I talked to some friends on the Outer Banks today. People are buying extra supplies but there are no huge concerns at the moment. From the latest satellite pics of the storm you can see it now has a nice rotation to it and its over some warm waters so further strengthing is possible.

[Mike M]

Yet another organized low has formed off the coast of Africa

Found an interesting blog on weather.com about this season.
