Re: GO WATCH BASTARDI'S METEOROLOGICAL DISCO for today

Map of Hurricane strikes could be broken down another way based on areas that could fall under a possible hurricane warning zone, and not just by states.

North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia - 44 storms, 15 major
Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama - 43 storms, 23 major
West coast of Florida - 42 storms, 16 major
East coast of Florida, Georgia - 40 storms, 11 major
Texas - 36 storms, 15 major
(All other states from Virginia to Maine - 41 storms, 14 major

Interesting to note that the northern gulf coast has experienced more major storms that any of the other areas as broken down above.

No doubt the state of Florida with its two coasts is by far at the greatest risk for a landfalling hurricane as the total strikes for the pensula is 77 storms with 27 majors.
