But have the ever seen the likes of a Camille, Ivan or Katrina? Methinks not!
Europe is pretty far North and its is on the west coast of a continent.
Storms move east to west at the tropics where hurricans form (while the rest of the weather moves west to east.)
Because of its latitude and geographic location, it will never face a Cat 4 hurricane (just as my location means I will never face one either.)
