I also want to point one more thing out in terms of GOM activity. Not every storm or hurricane that occurs there hits the United States. One storm I have brought up multiple times in previous posts is Anita, but Mexico has also been hit by Isidore in an El Nino year as well from the Gulf.
Or we could have another storm like Ida, that weakens over the Gulf.
When I say no hurricanes were in the Gulf in any year, I don't mean to say one didn't hit the Mexican coast or there wasn't one that proceeded to weaken. I mean, literally, there were none there in that year.
2009-11, as well as 2013, saw no GOM US hurricane hits. But Alex and Karl caused a lot of damage in Mexico in 2010, along with Ingrid in 2013, after striking from the GOM.
Maybe the US won't get hit, even in that area, but Mexico takes a hit. But I still would be ready.
