Late May-Early June Hold Tropical Interest

I am closely watching the late May and early June timeframe for the beginning of the tropical season in the Gulf of Mexico, which will coincide with the official start of the tropical season.
Around this timeframe, moist air will finally shift into the Gulf of Mexico, as the Gulf has been pretty dry recently. Additionally, the jet stream should lift north, leaving out shearing and opening the door fairly wide for tropical activity. Upper level winds will not totally die off, and little blips of winds may provoke something of interest in the region should small systems come around the bend.

Watch where the HI sets up over the south. Usually tropical systems tend to form due south of these HI's. Joe blogged this and shown his pt had validity

Anonymous: I was going to give you an answer, but there is ABSOLUTELY NO profanity allowed here. Cease and desist immediately. That is completely unacceptable. The comment has been deleted.

Now, as for the issue that I am supposedly wrong, warm air and light upper level winds are needed for tropical activity, which we will have in this timeframe. Hurricanes can form anytime, but are most common between June and November. I can assure you of that, Anonymous.

Hello, Andrew. I hope everyone realizes that I was not looking for trouble; it just is insane some of the rude things people say about you. I can't tolerate them bullying you. I intend to back you up every time this happens. What you said about profanity is completely true. I hope this doesn't happen again. Take care my friend./
