Where will be this years trouble spot

[Josephine96]

Will it be the battered GOM coast..? The still recovering Central Fla coast and inland areas?.. South Fla..? Fla West Coast..? Carolinas?

I kinda found it interesting that in 2004.. I got 3 direct hits yet in the record breaking 2005 I got a bunch of near misses lol..

[CHRISTY]

Well lets see..My 1st pick is The Gulf of Mexico. My 2nd pick is Southeast florida.My 3rd pick is north florida towards North Carolina.Thats it for now!PS! Everyone that lives under a hurricane prone area has 20 DAYS to finish their preperations meaning Your hurricane plan has to be complete!

I think the GOM will be prime target this year again.

I'm thinking the Gulf of Mexico...although I wish I wasn't thinking so.

[TSmith274]

Yeah me too. Looking at Dr. Grey's numbers, I believe that the higher probability of an east coast strike is more a function of it being more area vs the gulf coast. Probabilities seems awefully high this year for the GOM.

[SouthFloridawx]

I am going to go out on a limb and say:

#1 area will be from Louisiana to the Panhandle of Florida
#2 area is SouthWest Florida
#3 area is The Carolina's
#4 area is SouthEast Florida

[AussieMark]

does this refer to only USA or anywhere in the Atlantic?

in ATlantic I was thinking like Lesser Antilles or Cuba could see some focus this year

[HurricaneHunter914]

The GOM is the biggest trouble spot in my book, following is the Caribbean, and then the East Coast of the U.S.

[angelwing]

The East Coast is way overdue, but I think the GOM first then the east coast towards the Carolinas, maybe even NJ

[Blown Away]

1. Bahama's
2. North Carolina (Outer Banks)
3. South Florida (Ft. Pierce - Key West)
4. South Texas/ North Mexico
5. Barbuda - Virgin Islands area

Severe drought/ fires around my area reminds me of weather patterns during the mid late 90's, that's what I'm basing my predictions on!!

[Evil Jeremy]

If we have learned anything in the past few years, Florida will always be a prime target. Also in the past few years, most of the Bahama's storms ended up hitting us here in SFL.

[Hybridstorm_November2001]

I say more East Coast personally. I think a persistent Eastern Trough and a Blocking North Atlantic High will drag most storms North between the two (lots of near misses and at least a few landfalls). As such movement will be more Northward, than Westward, this year.

[Camille_2_Katrina]

i'm hoping the Azores!

[Brandon007]

I'm with most of you guys I think the Gulf Coast is in trouble this year the sst's are so warm that when the shear relaxes anything that gets in there is going to explode

[GrimReaper]

I'm hoping for a FISHY season, but I know that's not probable either!!! I live in the least hit area of Florida, and I hope it stays that way!! NE Coast-St. Augustine.

Mark you have been here long enough to know that. lol

#2 area is SouthWest Florida
#3 area is The Carolina's
#4 area is SouthEast Florida

I don't like your #1 pick at all. That puts last year's hard hit areas of AL/MS/SE LA in the bullseye

[Scorpion]

1. SE Florida
2. Texas
3. Panhandle
4. North Carolina

Not in any order.

[Extremeweatherguy]

#1 target = western Gulf of Mexico
#2 target = central Gulf of Mexico
#3 target = east coast of FL
#4 target = eastern Gulf of Mexico
#5 target = Mid Atlantic coast
#6 target = the NE

[Josephine96]

Maybe I should have just said everybody's trouble spot lol
