instead of 11 named tropical storms + 5 hurricanes + 2 major

the prediction is now - 10 storms + 4 named + 2 major

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just realized how vague this story is -


"The team now expects that 10 named tropical storms will form in the
Atlantic basin (which also includes the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of
Mexico), with four predicted to become hurricanes and two expected to
develop into major hurricanes, with sustained winds of 111 mph or
greater.


The previous forecast, issued in June, predicted that 11 named storms,
five hurricanes and two major hurricanes would form. A typical season
sees 10 named storms, of which six are hurricanes."

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this a total of 16 versus 18 - or - 10 versus 11?
