same longitude and latitude!!

[wasup254]

Brian Norcross just reported that the same longitude and latitude for BOTH Frances and Jeanne!!!! AMAZING, STUNNING, IS WHAT HE SAID. Within three weeks.

[Sean in New Orleans]

Now this is truly stunning and amazing....this is absolutely history...occurring within 3 weeks on this huge planet of ours. There will be all kinds of studies done on this----just a wild occurrence in our lifetime!!!

[BPJR051]

Not the kind of notoriety we were lookin for here in Stuart.

[MGC]

Talk about rolling snake eyes twice in a row. Hope everying works out for those poor people.....MHC

[stormchaserCP]

Absolutely amazing. Two landfalls in virtually the same location within 3 weeks...and roughly at same time too: 12AM Sun for Jeanne, 1AM Sun for Francis.

[EverythingIsEverything]

I will be checking on my Grandmother in Fort Pierce Florida once again like i did 3 weeks ago Sunday. Absolutely amazing the same landfall! I'm worried, as she had roof damage from Frances *sigh*

[wasup254]

I am still amazed.....I am in Fort Lauderdale and the difference is stornger winds then Frances...so far, we have power....

Husband and I leave Wednesday for the west coast, san franc to board a cruise ship that will repostion itself to Miami. What are the chances that mid October we can get back to Miami?

[WEATHER53]

I think there was a fairly famous entertainer named Jeanne Francis

[KeyLargoDave]

Amazing, amazing. I feel so bad for Stuart and everyone affected.

We had stronger storm before landfall from this than from Frances. With Frances, it wasn't until the storm was well inland that trailing bands hit here. We had sustained 35-45 mph winds this evening, heavy squalls.

[Cookiely]

The odds of that happening would be like winning the lottery two weeks in a row. Unreal.

[Sanibel]

I assume this is a first in hurricane history?

[KeyLargoDave]

Sanibel, I heard a brief mention from NHC of landfall paths crossing in the same year, Isabell and Cleo, and two storms in 1947 -- but I don't think those were exactly coincidental landfalls like Frances-Jeanne. If I get a graphic I'll post it.
