Speaking of forgotten hurricanes, anyone remember Dennis? That was damn near a Cat 5 in JULY but nobody remembers it.

Had it not had Cuba in the way, I imagine that we'd be talking about FIVE Category 5 hurricanes last year...

I'll always remember Rita for how she snuck up on us in Louisiana. We all thought she was going to Galveston or further south (well I had my suspicions just looking at her path ) and then bam we're under a hurricane warning 24 hours out. We didn't receive hurricane force winds in Lafayette but some of the gusts definately approached that level where I live and just south and west of here. The storm surge flooding was horrible for Southwest and Southcentral Louisiana, much worse than Audrey which for almost 50 years stood as the "benchmark" around here.
