long island canes
Well look at this from that site you gave me
How often Long Island gets affected?
brushed or hit every 5.36 years.
we were last brushed by hurricane Bob in 1991..so unfortunatley were kind of due
i'm not gonna get into it here or now, but unfortunately jim williams' site isn't entirely correct...we were clipped by Floyd ('99-met Cantore at Point Lookout), got seriously threatened by Isabel ('03) and received TS winds from Charley ('04). we were also affected by almost every TS/HURR last year with either rain, winds or both...
this year, with the super-high SSTs, i'm very worried about the potential for a long-tracking CV storm to make it's way up here...
in a more appropriate thread, later this season, i will do a full Long Island threat/potential update
