Hurricane Grand Slam

#1 Postby OuterBanker » Thu Sep 14, 2017 1:38 pm

I wonder if a hurricane Grand Slam will be possible this year. I haven’t ever heard the term, but I thought that it would be appropriate. A rather literal term in this instance. In other words the top four land falling states getting hit in the same year (Fl,TX,LA,NC). I haven’t researched whether this has been done before. So far Tx and Fl (both coasts of Fl) have been hit. Jury is still out on NC with Jose, but we should luck out.

I think that this is certainly possible given how explosively active and similar to 2005 this year has been.
