Getting to August without a storm is good news but by no means are we out of the woods! The real deal comes along in the next 6 weeks or so. And even getting to October is no guarantee you can relax. Anyone remember Opal? Can't remember the year, but it almost screwed up a vacation to New England.

I am a hurricane veteran. Lived in Gautier, MS for Betsy, '65, Camille '69; Mobile, AL, Frederick '79; Pensacola, FL, Ivan 04, Katrina '05
Lots and lots of Tropical Storms and one tornado through my back yard last year.

Maybe I should consider moving but with my luck, I will move to earthquake country.
