In October (possibly late October), between Key West and Tampa (on the west or southwest coast of florida/FL keys)....i.e., a Wilma-like track.

I believe that north of Corpus Christi and west of New Orleans, the season is just about done.

This is like the game 'Clue.' I will give it a shot.
From my amatureish observations, the strong tendency for recurve this year will weaken just enough for a hurricane to impact the North East corridor. New York vicinity.
In other words: Matthew, In New York, as a non-major.

Around October 22, eastern North Carolina from a Hazel/1878-like storm.

Anything that late in the season would be a FL. event. IMO

I agree. I am 99% sure were good for the rest of the season here in New Orleans. Anything that gets into the Gulf around October should go the way Wilma did.

so most of you guys are agreeing that the west gom is pretty much done this season, which is reasonable. i think anywhere from new orleans to new york has the best chance.
