The season so far

I made this hit/miss map in boredom:

Sorry for my horrible boredom. This is based on winds.

Barry and Erin were both TD landfalls so you might oughta scrap those hits...unless you count TDs

Kinda highlights how lucky US has been so far this year, but not so much the Caribbean...they don't need anymore storms. :(

Given what Erin became while over land, I'd leave it on the map.

Wouldn't it be funny if we ended 2007 and the state most affected by a TS is Oklahoma??

Ill leave barry on because, I did get TS force winds and there was minor damage on the extreme coast. I'm also going to leave Erin on the map. I was going to try to put inland affects on the map, but couldnt find good maps of inland effects such as rain.
Ill change this one with the death of Gabby.

I'd wait for BT to figure out Erin

It may have struck Texas as a marginal TS. however, it did hit Oklahom as a moderate to strong TS based upon the wind reports

It has been a "hot and cold" kind of season, that's for sure - totally...

is there a way to color code the map that differentiate's between a category 5 hit and a weak t.s

otherwise well done and i hope the u.s stays lucky and our friends elsewhere dodge bullets as well

what is surprising is that the two areas that haven't even come close to a tropical impact (that you would expect to) are the Northern Gulf coast near the FL panhandle and South Florida...

Same thing last year.

A break they desperately needed.

Don't say that outloud-you're allowed to think it. LOL Maybe we've been "forgotten". It's been a nice breather after the last few years. My blood presure has gone way down. :D

I've made a scale...

It takes into account ACE level...
Long tracks to short track systems...
Number of storms
Number of hurricanes
strength
Landfalls

Back to 95

1# 2005
2# 2004
3# 1995
4# 1998
5# 2003
6# 1999
7# 1996
8# 2001
9# 2000
10# 2007
11# 2002
12# 1997

2007 has pasted 2002 based on the fact that the ace is close and there has been many more landfalls. Also more storms.
