Will Wilma be retired(Part two)

[senorpepr]

If Wilma isn't retired, the 49ers will win the Super Bowl in February.

I will do one better: If Wilma isn't retired, the Vikings will win the Super Bowl.

Shoot... If Wilma isn't retired, the Texans will win the Super Bowl.

[Brent]

Wilma will be retired for Mexico's damage alone.

[feederband]

We should just retire the whole season..They were all apart of it...

[sma10]

Perhaps we should start a poll asking, "Is this the most ignorant poll question ever posed? Yes or no?"

[Buck]

Why are people voting no?

We have insane people running amuck on these forums.

I would retire Wilma for its Mexican damage, not its Florida damage.

she will be retired for both Mexico and Florida's damage

[NC George]

If Wilma isn't retired, the 49ers will win the Super Bowl in February.

I will do one better: If Wilma isn't retired, the Vikings will win the Super Bowl.

Shoot... If Wilma isn't retired, the Texans will win the Super Bowl.

How about...the AFC championship will be the Dolphins and the Texans, and the NFC Championship will be the Green Bay and the 49ers, with the Texans and the 49ers going to the SB and the Texans winning.

[wxmann_91]

No doubt that Wilma will be retired.

[Terrell]

Wilma will be retired, If she isn't I want some of whatever those people at the WMO are smoking.

Wilma was the nastiest of the whole bunch (by her stats), Dennis, Emily, Katrina, Rita, and Stan will have to get in line behind her for retirement.

1) MOST INTENSE HURRICANE EVER RECORDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2) Obliterated Playa del Carmen, tore up Cancun as a very strong Category 4 hurricane
3)Unexpectedly made landfall as a strong 3(YES IT WAS A 3!!!) in Florida being possibly the 3rd or 4th costliest US hurricane
4) Created powerful nor'easter bringing heavy rain and snow.

I, hereby conclude, that Wilma has a slight chance of retirement

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

Wilma caused not even 10 percent of the damage of Katrina. Katrina killed 1,300 people in is the most costly hurricane to ever hit the United states with a major city 80 percent under water. 2 billion in damage to south Florida.

Stan killed another 1,200 people..

Dennis was the worst cane sicne hurricane fox to hit Florida. In also 5 billion or so in damage to the United states...


Emily a little damage on the Yuctan...In done alot of damage on Mexico...

Rita wiped out towns in was very bad...

Wilma done damage on the Yuctan then hit florida with 8 billion in damage...Bad yes but not worst then Rita or Katrina or Stan.

[SamSagnella]

Wilma done damage on the Yuctan then hit florida with 8 billion in damage...Bad yes but not worst then Rita or Katrina or Stan.

So? There's no limit to the number of storms being retired... just because Wilma wasn't as bad as Katrina (the worst natural disaster in American history) doesn't mean 'she' shouldn't be retired. IT IS ALL BASED ON DAMAGE, Wilma dealt a catastrophic blow to many areas, and, thus, will be retired. I can't believe people are voting 'no.'
