Today marks 10 years since the landfall of hurricane Jean, the last of the "big 4" to hit in 2004. It made landfall in the evening, only a few miles from where Hurricane Frances made lade fall a few weeks before. Jeanne was notable for doing a large loop in the Bahamas and causing erosion and damage along the east beaches all the way up to Volusia county, The highest winds were felt in Indian river and southern Brevard county. Surge and beach erosion caused damage to structures into Volusia county, however.

One more hurricane, Wilma, would make landfall in Florida the following year before the nearly 9 year gap (and counting) we have now. Only a few tropical storms affected Florida since 2005.

Although 96L is being tracked in the Central Atlantic, the generally hostile conditions across the Atlantic will likely keep this one from developing. "home grown" systems closer to us are the most likely place for formation at this time, and nothing is organized enough to be a threat short term. Stalled fronts have caused excessive rainfall this week in Florida, but nothing tropically significant was able to come of it.
