The Peak of Hurricane Season

Post by Sea Hunt Video »

As most of us living along the East Coast and the Gulf Coast know all too well August and September (and to some degree October) are the peak of hurricane season with mid-September being the zenith.

NOAA has today revised UPWARD its hurricane and named storm predictions. :( :( :(

I once again begin my search (albeit too late as usual) for a nice home in Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, etc. :roll:

John S., is your offer of a dry bunk for a few days still open :?: :wink:
Fair winds,

Roberto

NOAA has been pessimistic for as long as I can remember. I hear there are big Saharan storms that have clouded up the eastern Atlantic. also plenty of wind shear and a huge Bermudan high in place. we had plenty of years without El Nino and minimal hurricane activity. also NOAA counts storms that never even make landfall. busy knocking on wood here :roll:
