Hmm, a little late, I know, but I see what you mean. However, the best analogues at the moment are 1996 and 2005, with this year sitting snuggly between the two. Just a note on this though: both 1996 and 2005 had very active seasons with several strong to powerful hurricanes, whilst the east Pacific remained relatively quiet to near average. It will be interesting to see exactly what happens with what has become a surprise season in several ways already.
