Why not? Maybe its the summer of Camille. Big anniversary, lots of talk. Hasn't been one like that in a long time. Earlier in the season around the anniversary there was talk of that storm going in there.

Usually this season I have looked to the right of the cone (usually south) and was right with both Charley and Frances but with Ivan's tenancious nature and need to go west.. just takes a little westward movement or lack of eastern movement at landfall to replay landfall where Camille made famous. A hard act to follow.. maybe this is the year for Ivan to do so.

Just a few thoughts of an historic point of view.
