AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center Chief Forecaster Joe Bastardi
"Early in the season-June and July-the Texas Gulf Coast faces the highest likelihood of a hurricane strike, possibly putting Gulf energy production in the line of fire. As early as July, and through much of the rest of the season, the highest level of risk shifts to the Carolinas. From mid-August into early October, the window is open for hurricane strikes to spread northward to the more densely populated Northeast coast. At the very end of the season, southern Florida also faces significant hurricane risk."
Ken Reeves, AccuWeather's Director of Forecast Operations
"Ironically, though, the region that was hammered the hardest last year-the central and eastern Gulf Coast-has one of the lower probabilities of receiving another major hurricane strike in 2006."
AccuWeather.com Hurricane Center forecasts six landfalling storms-five hurricanes and a tropical storm-this year, with three of the hurricanes being major upon landfall.
I should start a Hurricaine Pool to predict who gets the shit knocked out of them this year. $5 to enter a guess. whoever gets the closest takes it. Or in the event of more than one area getting hid by a major storm, prorated based on the severity of the storm (category.windspeed, or something else that we could set guidelines for in advance)
Any takers?
