here we go again!
Oh Oh!
Looks like I have to be the voice of the islanders on this board.
I know we are in the minority :smile:
but......... BUT.............
is there any reason why one of the choices in the poll was not the Caribbean islands?
I know it is not intentional but it really feels insulting when we are not acknowledged.

Luis, you ROCK!!!!!!!! And to the rest of you that never even gave a thought to us (and it's okay that you didn't include the Bahamas etc. Luis, the point was made)...that is why humans made maps...BIG maps...DETAILED maps. Crazy, wacky idea to check between the coast of Africa and the coasts of the United States of America...but, there it is, just the same. Ok, I feel better now 8-)

The arc of the Lesser Antilles are the first to have a landfall if it goes that way. :wink:

Laughing...yeah...what about THEM?? But that is a poll maker question, not a Luis correction! Point being....there are more places of potentially disasterous landfall than the US coasts. Period.

Well if so many locations have to be considred for possible landfall, perhaps it would be better to just make a thread prompting user to enter where they think landfall will occur. Otherwise your gonna have one very very big poll lol.

Here's some Climo numbers for track.

Of the 21 storms to pass within 50NM of the 5pm advisory for TD9:

2/21 passed through Middle/Lower islands, both disappated before landfall

3/21 passed near the Upper islands, 2 made landfall (Charleston (Hugo) and Newfoundland)

3/21 made landfall on US East Coast as hurricane
Isabel around Ocracoke, 85kts
Hugo at Charleston, 120 kts
Able (1952) at southern SC, 90kts

1/21 made landfall on US East Coast as TS (Esther (1961) at Cape Cod)

1/21 came close to Bermuda (Erin, 2001, not direct hit)

3/21 have disappated in low-to-mid latitude open Atlantic

0/21 have passed 83 W (closest was Dog (1951) in Carib, 2nd was Hugo (1989) in WV)

0/21 made it to the Gulf of Mexico

0/21 made landfall in FL

So, climo goes for the fishes.

that gulf prediction sounded pretty far fetched. the probability of the storm missing the northern islands, bahamas, fl keys, is really rare
