| Notable Hurricane That Hit In August or Later. |
Some good news from top hurricane forecasters: The 2018 Atlantic hurricane season should be quieter than normal, according to a new predictionreleased Monday.
Meteorologist Phil Klotzbach and other experts from Colorado State University – regarded as the nation's top seasonal hurricane forecasters – predict 10 named tropical storms will form, of which four will become hurricanes.
That is a sharp decrease from their forecast in April, when they said 7 hurricanes would form. One system, Subtropical Storm Alberto, already formed in May...

It only take one, and hurricane season is far from over.
There is one disturbance in the Atlantic now, but at this point it closer to Africa than. I'll keep an eye on that one for any development.
On the Treasure Coast today we had a smooth surf and big tides.

I think everybody knows that there is no "best" metal detector. The detector that is best depends upon a variety of factors including but not limited to where you are going to hunt and what you want to find. While the Garrett ATX is a much more expensive and under most circumstances a much more capable metal detector than the Garrett Ace, yet there are times when the Ace might be the best choice. One such place is a site where there are nearby power lines, cables and a lot of ambient interference. I was reminded of that today when I visited a place where there was a lot of interference.
Yes the ATX has a frequency scan function, but under those circumstances, the Ace does a decent job, barely being affected by the interference without going through any special procedures. If you are on a beach, especially with wet sand, you'll most likely get way better performance from the ATX, assuming you know how to use it.
I just mentioned two particular detectors, but what I'm talking about isn't just those two metal detectors. You always have to evaluate a metal detector relative to the situation and application. The detector that will be best in one situation might be a poor choice in another situation.
The Excalibur and Sovereign were not especially sensitive to ambient electrical interference. If I correctly recall, the White's Dual surf was more sensitive.
There are some places on Treasure Coast beaches where you might run into erratic performance due to interference. If you go south from the beach access at Rio Mar, when you get near the bend, there is one location where you might run into interference. There is also one south of the Turtle Trail access.
The interference at some of those locations seem to center around particular houses. I think sometime marine or other radio communications can cause noise too. There are times when it is worse than other times at the same location.

Treasure hunters seek, discover, recover and perhaps clean nice old artifacts. We hope those items are still in good condition, but the fellow in the following video actually restores precious artifacts and works of art.
