Re: Hurricane free zone?

That doesn't make me feel good. Picked the area between Gainesville and Jacksonville for the lack of Hurricanes.




I've lived in Florida for 20 years and the Jacksonville area has pretty much been spared during that time, as has the south coast of Georgia. I'm not sure if that's just good luck or if there's a climatological explanation for it. Perhaps those more knowledgeable about the science of tropical weather than I am can shed some light.
