Might be a good idea to include the years, especially for dupe storms.

Drop #10 Elena from September and add Dora (1964) adjusted 2005 (using CPI) at 1.5 Billion.

Here's a decent list from NOAA.

I'm not using inflation

Dora was quite the intresting storm though, a track that today would certainly be intresting to say the least

[AJC3]

Minor nit-pick: Allison of 2001 wasn't a cane. Since it's the only TS to make this list, if you change the title to "Costliest TC's By Month", you should be fine. Either that or asterisk it with a note that it's the only TS on the list.

I'll leave you alone now.

1. Wilma $14,400,000,000

I thoguht that Wilma's cost was 16.8 Bilion. Wasn't it?

[storm4u]

4. Lili $860,000,000,000 that doesnt seem right at all!! Katrina was the highest ever at 75,000,000,000 if i remember that right!! I could be wrong though!

4. Lili $860,000,000,000 that doesnt seem right at all!! Katrina was the highest ever at 75,000,000,000 if i remember that right!! I could be wrong though!

Yeah, I believe since it is only 4th on that list, we have just one too many periods there... knock off the last three zeros.

I'm getting mixed messages, 12.2, 14.4, 16.8. I dont know what to believe.

[Audrey2Katrina]

I'm getting mixed messages, 12.2, 14.4, 16.8. I dont know what to believe.

You'll have that same problem with Katrina, and Rita as well... since they're so recent, the final numbers simply aren't in yet, and you can bet they'll only be going up.

It will be a few years, especially with respect to Katrina, that numerical values will be properly evaluated for a few storms of the 05 hurricane season.

I think Katrina will be in the range of 90-100 Billion possibly as high as 125

Rita I think is about right at 10 Billion

Wilma I think anywhere from 14-17 Billion

[AussieMark]

the NHC has it at 12.2 Billion in the Wilma report

so at that stage 12.2 Billion is the figure

[Jim Cantore]

the NHC has it at 12.2 Billion in the Wilma report

so at that stage 12.2 Billion is the figure

The 14.4 and 16.8 came after the report came out

[AussieMark]

got a link where I can read it?

[HurricaneHunter914]

You see Aussie Mark just because the NHC has it at 12.2 billion doesn't mean it has stayed at that. Like for example they had Katrina's death toll at about 1,200. Now it's at 1,800 dead. And since the NHC do their reports almost right after the Storm, they aren't so accurate.

But the NHC is the official source. It's the Government. Until they update it, it is what will go down in the History Books.

[AussieMark]

I meant official figures thats all

the NHC do have revisions tho

It was Ivan or Charley in 2004 that has been revised twice since the initial report
