September Survey Results

Thanks to everyone who responded to the September Question. Here are the results... From 1980 through August 2017, how many category 4 or 5 hurricanes have made landfall in the US? One (1) -- 25% Two (2) -- 12% Three (3) -- 38% Four (4) -- 00% Five (5) -- 13% Six+ (6+) -- 12% We should have clarified "mainland US". According to the National Hurricane Center, FOUR Category 4 or 5 hurricanes have made landfall on the US mainland between 1980 and August 2017: Hugo (SC 1989), Andrew (FL 1992), Charley (FL 2004) and Harvey (TX 2017). Unfortunately, Irma joined the list right after our last newsletter went out.
