I will say Florida will see the most landfalls from tropical storms or hurricanes.

I am curious about your statement that Georgia needs them Why?

Well we need the rain from them...not so much the wind or high surf and erosion...but mostly we need the rain from them....we are in desprate need of it...and maybe the 10" from `1 or 2 would do the trick

Ok KC I agree because the SE has been in a big drought in the past months and a TD or a TS stationary in the SE will aliviate that but you may not want an Allison type of tropical storm stationary.

That is very true...I wish that on know one....that was just a sad catastrophe....I feel for all the people that were involved in that.

FL and NC are the statistically safe picks.

Yes they are and maybe we could get some of the remnants to come up here and dump some good soaking rains on us.

I voted for Florida because I have this weird feeling that something big is going to happen here this year!! :eek:

Aside from Florida, which I am really sure that they will get a tropical storm, I think South Carolina, for some reason. I'm not sure why, but there hasn't been a North Carolina storm in a while (1999 with Floyd), who knows, it may go a little more westward.

Florida will get hit I think this year. I don't know about the rest of you folks, but here in St Pete there are a lot of people who had their homeowners insurance increased. Most people I have spoke with had it increased by $100.00 - $200.00 a year. Mine went up $175.00

I say South Florida, but Louisiana could also see some action this year. Because it has happened several times where a storm crossed South Florida and then ended up here. I think Louisiana will at least see a Tropical Storm this year. We are way overdue for something major here in southeast Louisiana.

PTrackerLA · #13 Postby **PTrackerLA** » Wed May 05, 2004 4:04 pm

I think Florida and either Texas or Louisiana will see a storm this year.

Kinda suprised i have yet to see anyone mention the Caribbean? Namely the Virgin Isld's over to Puerto Rico? Sorry Luis but with the way things are Looking with the steering patterns that look to be shaping up one cannot ignore the ISLAND'S down in the Caribbean. They would be in my high risk area as well as the Florida westcoast over to SE.LA. With two focal points being between Tampa and the Keys and the other from SE.LA over to Pensacola, FL. Then my other area of most concern would be from Hatteras up the coast to the NE.

Just remember folks the areas mentioned above is what i think has the highest "chance" of seeing a land falling system (Hurricane)and does not mean it wont happen elsewhere outside the areas i mentioned above.

I have to agree there. The islands could be in store for some hits as well! I hope not though!

KOW this poll is only for the US coastline from Brownsville to Maine and the caribbean is not included in it but I agree with you that here in the islands we are at a high risk of having landfalls more this season than in past ones because of the pattern shaping up.

I say Fla not just because I live here but because it seems many other states have been hit lately from TX to LA to NC.

Just to balance things out maybe its Fla's {peninsula)turn.

Also many of the Caribbean Isles have been hit to in the last 5-7 years or less, Cuba got Isidore,Lily & Michelle.

Isidore went on to affect Yucatan.

PR got a direct hit from a powerful Georges,& Georges went on to hit every other island in it's path.

We all know what Mitch did.

Iris struck Belize I believe.

Again all thats left is Fla peninsula & other areas where hurricane are more rare.

Whats the chances of Georgia being hit or one hitting Flordia or SC coast and moving into Georgia
