There were even more 130 kt hurricanes over these years: Florence, Laura, Eta and Ida, all of which were very destructive but fell just short.
Do you think 2023 will keep up with the trend? There's a small chance that Idalia may be the next 135 kt storm, but from what we know right now, realistically it will have to be another storm later in the season.
Mods, can you make this a poll?
