I don't want to jinx us, but has anyone noticed the slow start to the North Atlantic hurricane season?

Using the 1944-2005 average (which doesn't include some recent highly active seasons), we could normally expect one named storm by now:
Tropical Cyclone Climatology
Hopefully this trend will continue!!
