“Never heard of the authors in my life, and nowhere do they state their qualifications.”
Hey nice to meet you :-) Speaking as one of the authors...it is perfectly understandable that you have never heard of us, as we are still students aiming to one day become meteorologists. However, no where on the site do we claim to have qualifications. In fact it is stated within the introduction and the disclaimer that it’s an unofficial forecast. One should ALWAYS use official sources during critical situations.
“Weather on the internet is filled with random people slapping up webpages and calling themselves “centers.”
If that’s how you perceive this site then that’s your choice. But I would disagree with that particular choice of wording, given how much time we spend mainting the site and making these forecasts.
Best regards.
Also for those interested, I believe Dr. Gray and Klotzbach update their activity forecast and landfall probabilities on May 31.
