Seems like Texas will have a threat either way this year. If it is a gulf year then we will have threats like Rita and Emily. If it is a Cape year, then we will have other threats like Bret in 99'. Plus I will be in Fl for chuncks of June, July and August at a House I have in Merritt Island...so if it is a cape year, then I may be in trouble there as well.

Well, I thought Texas would have a threat last year. But just look at this map. Everything seems to curve away from Texas - it's almost amusing...

Yeah, its been a long time since we saw any MAJOR action here worth mentioning....discounting Allison of course...If you look back at 04 through 05 I have noticed a more western trend....one reason I will cut my plywood and get my generator by May.....
