ANOTHER BIG HURRICANE SEASON PREDICTED The Toronto Sun Mon 08 May 2006 Page: 24 Section: News
The 2006 hurricane season officially opens June 1, and already scientists are telling people living in eastern North America that several storms are predicted, with as many as five major hurricanes packing winds of 180 km/h or greater.
"It's kind of comparable to what we were looking at last year at this time," says Bob Robichaud, a meteorologist with the Canadian Hurricane Centre in Dartmouth, N.S.
"Last year we were looking at 12 to 15 storms and this year the forecast is for about 17."
<<<no it's not...any hurricane and this will move>>>>
I'm not saying that it's not gonna go up. I am sure it will with another active season predicted, however Like I said, Damage wise Katrina was a Once in 30-50 year event. The last Hurricane that caused even close to as much damage was 1992 in Andrew. Before that you have to go back to Camile in the 60's, and before that probably the Long Islang Express of 1938.
The Katrina situation was an instance where everything came together. A huge storm in size, gathered a ton of strength, and hit the most vulnerable city in the US.

Posted by renrob05 on :
got this from another board...
Alberto strengthening slightly
4:56 a.m. ET 6/12/2006 Matthew Newman, Sr. Meteorologist, The Weather Channel Tropical Storm Alberto, now 275 miles SSW of Apalachicola, continues to churn in the Gulf of Mexico. Thunderstorms have developed closer to the center of the storm during the past few hours and some slight strengthening has occurred. A tropical storm warning has now been issued for portions of the Florida coastline from Indian Pass to Englewood. Tropical storm watches remain in effect from Englewood to Bonita Beach. The main concern from Alberto is the heavy rainfall anticipated. Rainfall on the magnitude of 5 to 10 inches could fall through Tuesday. While this rain will help ease the dry weather, flooding is a concern and flood watches are posted across portions of the peninsula. The eastern Pacific remains quiet and tropical storm development is not anticipated in the near future.
The Season Ahead
Experts say the 2006 season could be another very active one. The latest forecast from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) calls for 13-16 total storms, 8-10 hurricanes, and 4-6 major hurricanes (Category 3 or higher). __________________

Heck, I'm in * .096, holding this one through the summer. Even if a hurricane doesn't drive this one up, speculation will... Posted by Stockman13 on :
ya monday morning im in on this puppy. by the end of summer its going to grow up to be a big dog. Bottomed out, speculation, hype, hurricanes,...what more can you ask for.
Posted by Stockman13 on :
maybe wait until august, 52 wk low. maybe not. lets see how it goes this week.
Posted by MillerTIME on :
Stockman you do what you want, but if your going to expect it to drop during august to its 52 week low then you might not know what months are the hurricane season.
This stock ran up 60% on a tropical storm in the 2nd week of the hurricane season. Watch for the cat 3 or 5 Hurricanes. But if you want to wait it out, your going to be hoping against hope to pick it up below .1. Until the next hurricane it is going to consolidate between .1 and .13
Posted by Jason0321 on :
all these hurricane plays payed off last year around september. Now I'm not saying that this year it will do the same thing, but you are not going to see the massive stock gains until we see how bad the season was, and how much $$ each of the companies gets as part of the relief effort.
There is nothing wrong with picking up some shares now before the season gets rolling, but im not heavy in hurricane right now because I beleve we have some time. I watching ECCI though. Waiting for 1....dont know if I will get it or not.
Posted by Stockman13 on :
i didnt say that i am going to wait for sure. i said i am going to see what happens on monday.
Posted by renrob05 on :
Yeah this is bottom for ECCI the lowest you will see maybe is .105
Also, you never know when a hurricane is gonna hit. Sure, it is more likely to get a huge one in August, but you never know...you might miss the boat!!
It flew on a tropical storm!! LMAO

Hurricane Central: Today's Outlook No tropical storms loom
2:07 p.m. ET 6/18/2006 B. Bernard, Sr. Meteorologist, The Weather Channel
Severe Weather Outlook Hurricane Tracker: Alberto Tropical cyclone formation is not anticipated over the next day or two in either the Atlantic or eastern Pacific.
In the Atlantic, clusters of showers and thunderstorms dot the area between Africa and the Windward Islands, but none of the areas shows any signs of further development. In the eastern Pacific, shower and thunderstorm activity is minimal within the monsoon trough which lies several hundred miles south of the Mexican coast.
Even in the western Pacific, tropical development is unlikely through the weekend.
Maybe we can still wait a day or 2?
Posted by MillerTIME on :
yep guys ill have more on this later, but i do not disagree with most of you here, and i do think you can still load down here for the next week or two at between .105 and .13. But i highly doubt it will not run until september.
It ran last august from .15 to .75 in like a week or so because of katrina. It didnt run that big because everyone was waiting till the end of the season to find out how much $$$ these hurricane companies will make. These stocks run off complete momo and nothing else.
The First Real Hurricane of the season i Guarentee you will see .2. Again, i will have more on this soon, but im gonna be quiet for a little while. LOL, im sure you know why...(looking for more funds maybe..lol ...shhhh)

Do not know a lot about this company other than they should become active and bullish as we head into hurricane season (watched recent performance, checked last year's)....and right now thats enough for me. Initial purchase at .107 today!(near the annual low) so now its time to read up and see what I bought.

Count me in, hurricane season is guaranteed to happen every year so definitely worth the funds

People a picking this up now and the first big storm this is going to soar! Now through September this one will be hot!
Posted by cactus33 on :
yep, treating us real nice. low float and shares are really hard to get. nice buying from .10
Posted by stocknet on :
Anyone know the float for ECCI? Looks like this one moves quickly with volume. Any tropical activity and this one will be in the .20's
Posted by Squire38 on :
I really thought this would hit the lower support around $0.09.
2004 -- It ran from 0.55 to 1.15 in June. Also from 0.28 to 1.04 in Sept-Oct.
2005 -- 0.11 to 0.38 in May-June. 0.07 to 0.75 in August thanks to Katrina.
I haven't had the time to correlate the runs with hurricanes, yet.
Here is my 6 month chart. I'm not in this, yet.
Posted by 100stacks on :
I got in ECCI at .11, could you explain you're chart a little. What does it forecast for the summer?
Posted by ArmySGT on :
because that is mainly when the hurricanes and real bad weather starts and/or happens
Posted by Squire38 on :
quote:Originally posted by 100stacks: I got in ECCI at .11, could you explain you're chart a little. What does it forecast for the summer?
Forecast, I don't know. It does seem to have found its support. During the runs the last two years, I would have to check and see if there were indeed hurricanes hitting the US right before the runs.
Posted by Matrix Trader on :
This could really move from here... consolidating for the last few days.
Posted by superman7 on :
its running
Posted by indef on :
low volume... looks like momo play
Posted by cactus33 on :
lookin good. low float, and shares are hard to get
Posted by 100stacks on :
What do you think this stop will peak at today or the next couple of days .15, .20, etc.. A tropical storm is developing that's why its running.
Posted by Squire38 on :

200 SMA is resistance at 0.14.
I don't think just because a tropical storm is developing it is increasing. If you look at the last 2 year chart, if that were the case, it would run like crazy all the time. Last year it only ran like twice. We had a lot more than 2 tropical storms last year.
Posted by gloomiath on :
where can this go nearterm? just bought in today
Posted by Squire38 on :
I bought today on the dip and I am looking to get 20%.
Posted by gloomiath on :
thats all your looking for? i was hoping for .20's soon whatcha think?
Posted by cactus33 on :
typical trading with this stock lately two steps forward one step back. people seem to hold onto this stock. hard shares to buy on the bid low.
Posted by Squire38 on :
quote:Originally posted by gloomiath: thats all your looking for? i was hoping for .20's soon whatcha think?
I'll sell at the resistance points. If it dips, I'll rebuy at the support. If it breaks through the resistance then I'll buy once the bid gets above the resistance and uses it as support. I might lose a few shares, but at least I made profit and felt safe doing so.
Same thing I am doing with CLBE, and trying to do with AAGM. It hits resistance, I sell, it drops to support I buy back. Once it does get through resistance, I'll buy back in (assuming I sold at resistance and it did not drop). Usually by then I would have flipped enough that I have cash in my pocket and pretty much have just as many shares as when I first bought.
Posted by 100stacks on :
Current bid: .126 ask: .135
Why is the spread so big?
Posted by cactus33 on :
because float is low, and people hold onto this stock more than others, imo
Posted by 100stacks on :
I keep changing my sell limit on this, I think I'm going to hope for a huge run instead of making pocket change.

From another board
UPDATED: 11:05 am EDT, July 18, 2006 NHC UPGRADES SYSTEM TO T.D. #2- T.S. WATCH ISSUED FOR PORTIONS OF NC COAST
Well, there you have it. The regional computer models did well on this one. The low pressure area southeast of Cape Hatteras has become more organized and is now T.D. #2. The NHC is forecasting it to become a strong tropical storm as it moves very close to Cape Hatteras over the next few days. From there, the track takes what would be a tropical storm sharply out to sea and away from the East Coast. It looks like the primary concern will be for people along the Outer Banks of North Carolina. In fact, a tropical storm watch has been posted- here is the latest from the NHC:
AT 11 AM EDT...1500 UTC...A TROPICAL STORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE EASTERN COAST OF NORTH CAROLINA FROM NORTH OF CAPE LOOKOUT NORTHWARD TO SOUTH OF CURRITUCK BEACH LIGHT.
If the forecast verifies, TD #2 could reach near 65 mph as it passes close to Hatteras in about 48 hours. Since this is the first advisory on the system, we'll have to wait for more info from the NHC to see what kind of an impact this system will have along the Outer Banks. If need be, Jesse and I will travel out to the area for observations and reporting. I will have more here later this afternoon on this developing depression off the NC coast.
