Which storms will be the big ones in 2011

:uarrow: Franklin won't hit Savannah, Georgia because I never seen extreme weather.

Hate to tell you this, but that wouldn't stop a storm from hitting Georgia.

LOl yes it will all extreme weather likes to avoid wherever I am. The severest weather I have seen was a strong pop up summer thunderstorm that had a severe thunderstorm warning. I haven't never seen hail, funnelclouds, blizzards, icestorms, hurricnes and tropical storms, flooding, firestorms and the rest. The most damage I have seen is a power outage.

When you joined, you had Pensacola as one of your locations. Yet you say you never experienced even a tropical storm?

Thats different lol I was a kid and didn't even know what a tropical storm was when i was 2 years old. In Louisville, MS as soon as i left there... lets remember the yazoo city Tornado which killed 4 of my family members. I know its kind of sad but I should have stayed and the tornado would have avoided us lol. Psychic powers or coincidences? In illinois somehow a 12inch snowstorm that was predicted day before turned into a rain event all because it was 35 degrees not 32.

So far you say you have lived in Louisville, MS, Waycross, GA, St. Mary's, GA, Savannah, GA, Pensacola, FL and I think some other places I can't remember and yet you say you have never experienced severe weather? That is almost impossible if you have lived in all these places.

[Migle]

I don't think I would be joking around about 4 of my family members getting killed, but you do. I am sure you have experienced some type of severe weather with all those places you lived at. But were getting off topic here

Florida hasn't had a hurricane since Wilma so its been over 5 years. Long gaps between hurricanes tend to be unkind to Florida. So I'm a thinking Florida may get something.
1. 1956 Hurricane Flossy- 4 years later- 1960 Hurricane Donna.
2. 1960 Hurricane Donna- 4 years later- 1964 Hurricanes Cleo, Dora and Isbell.
3. 1979 Hurricane David- 6 years later- 1985- Hurricanes Elena (almost), Juan (remnants) and Kate.
4. 1987 Hurricane Floyd- 5 years later- 1992- Hurricane Andrew
5. 1999 Hurricane Irene- 5 years later- 2004 - Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan (close enough) and Jeanne.

And a few examples above.

Ouch. 2011 is 6 years, so if were not hit this year would it be a 7 year record? The fact that the season will be neutral for some reason is scary. Its really a fact of when not where.

[Hurricane Jed]

9 years and about 2 months is the record. Between Hurricane #5 which hit Florida Aug. 31st 1856 and Hurricane #7 which hit the state on October 23rd 1865. Florida felt the effects of some storms from 1859-1861 but no direct landfalls or anything significant. Given the lack of data from back then it seems unlikely Florida could have gone 9 years without a direct hurricane landfall but no way of telling for sure.

RINA!! For crying out loud! A cross between the terrible twins really?? Who picks these names anyway? lol What about Rachel, Rebecca... hopefully we never get to the R's again.

Correction Louisville Savannah Pensacola and Carol Stream.I have experienced severe weather, I mean like the severe severe weather like hail and blizzards and tornadoes and hurricanes where damage is involved and where the stuff is remembered. like -18 with a WC of -40 in carol stream,IL and they saw like 22.5 inches during that February blizzard 2011. It wouldve been a snow fail.

I wasn't joking about that. You actually think i would be laughing if 4 of my family members died!(whats going through your head) That was a time of depression for us FYI. Case closed back on topic

Rachel is in use in the Eastern Pacific on List 6 and an alternate spelling of Rebecca (Rebekah) is on List 5 in the Atlantic. But yeah they more or less changed a single letter and called it good.

Rina and Rita wow lol who makes up the replacement names? there is like a million more names out there?

[Hurricane Jed]

I'm kinda wishing Arlene would do something and get retired. 9 times its been used. Though when I think of the name Arlene I always think of that pink cat from the Garfield comics and wonder to myself how could Arlene possibly do anything significant.

There are PLENTY of names they could have chosen:

Raven
Reese
Riley
Rihanna
Raquel
Ramona
Regina

etc.

Plus, the A names get boring after awhile.

ANY of these names would be awesome:

Avril
Ashlee/Ashley
Amber
Arniesa
Ariannna
Ariel
Angela
Angelica
Angelina

etc.

[Hurricane Jed]

Don't know why but have a feeling the East Coast will see a lot of activity.

Here's my map of the 2011 season. Its based on guesses and a little amount of history. The blank chart is from the NHC. I didn't label which one is which so use your imagination
