Cent. FL. June Rainfall = Tip on # of Hurricane's?
      Thu Jun 30 2005 08:57 PM

As told to me by a friend who happened to be looking at vacation plans..

When Central Florida (Orlando specifically) has more than 16" of rain in June, the number of named hurricanes that year tended to be lower than the all-tiime average of 8.57 per year. Between 13.7" and 15.99" of rain in June, the number of named hurricanes that year happened to be more than the average.

I haven't done a true model to verify deviation but here is a start..

1968 - 18.28" of rain and 8 hurricanes;
1939 - 16.95" of rain and 5 hurricanes;

1974 - 15.28" of rain and 11 hurricanes;
1999 - 13.84" of rain and 12 hurricanes;
1945 - 13.70" of rain and 11 hurricanes;

2005 - over 17" of rain and ?? hurricanes.

It might stop right there.. I don't know..

I thought I'd share that with the forum even though the sample size was so small because it was an interesting trend.
