Gamma: Yet Another Possible 2005 Record...

#1 Postby MiamiensisWx » Fri Nov 18, 2005 4:55 pm

I've just noticed this... if Gamma makes landfall in Florida, it will be the first time a storm with a name from the Greek alphabet has made landfall in the U.S.

Just when you thought the record-breaking was over... just incredible.

Gamma would also 8th named storm to hit the US this year tying another record.

It will be the first time that a tropical system makes landfall in the US in the month of November since Gordon in 1994, which precisely made landfall in Florida.

BY THE WAY, IT'S ALSO THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1996 THAT WE HAVE AT LEAST A NAMED TROPICAL SYSTEM IN EVERY MONTH.

While there are many WORLDWIDE tropical cyclone records left intact, very many ATLANTIC tropical records have been shattered by 2005.
