Interesting. It seemed like there were going to be a lot of hurricanes early in the season, but not much going on during the late summer and fall, when most of the major hurricanes occur. Probably part of the same weather pattern that gave us a major drought.
hehehe, I guess some people who were not right underneath Ike (2008) thought that was going to be a walk in the park...
That was pretty much a Catagory 2 storm, but the storm surge was a Cat 3/4...
I sat on my small front porch in a nice foldable chair (out of the main air stream) during most of Ike...It would probably be the worst one I would do like that, if it had been anything more intense, we would have locked up and headed out...
The big problem was the aftermath...We had no power for 16 days...I’ve seen and heard worse...
But we are better prepared because of this risk and area we live in...
