How Many East Coast Landfalling Storms Will We See?

#1 Postby MiamiensisWx » Fri Mar 03, 2006 11:53 am

I say we will see around four eastern U.S. coast landfalls. Of the four landfalls, here are the areas which I think will get them on the eastern U.S. coast...

Carolinas - 3 landfalling storms; 1 tropical storm; 2 hurricanes; 1 major hurricane

New England/eastern Canada - 1 brush from tropical storm or hurricane; no landfalls

Eastern/southeastern Florida coast - 1 landfalling storm; 1 hurricane; 1 major hurricane

What are your thoughts?

hum... im not so sure we will see that much activity,time will tell! i want another month to see SSTs, troughs, and wind patterns. if all comes together, you could be right on. I do think we will see LaNina weaken, and perhaps bring on negitive ENSO conditions. Im sure all of us living on the coast are also living on the edge. :eek:

I agree; I think we will see weak La Nina conditions by the summer. Also, even a strong La Nina does not mean that southeast Florida (and other areas in the Gulf of Mexico) won't get hit.

No seriously, I think 2 will be it, one for Florida and one on an Isabel-like track.

Just my gut here, but I'm thinking 2 to 3 landfalls in New England. Just as many, maybe even more, for the Carolinas. I think it is going to be a bad bad East Coast Season

All for Florida...one T.S...3 hurricanes... one major.

I think the Carolinas will be brushed by a few storms but no landfall.

I didn't put Florida in the mix, so I said 3. I figure 2 Carolina area hits probably both hurricanes, and 1 New England hit, not major though. There will be several threats past this including some close calls. Florida East coast could see 2 or 3 past this including one major, imo.

LOL... sorry 'bout that. But you can take consolation in the fact that it's a wild guesstimate! :wink: Good luck!
