LOL!!!!!!! I spent every summer from 1974 - 1982 on the Gulf Coast of Florida....and never encountered a hurricane until 1985 in Delaware.
It must be that global warming they keep talking about:)
We lived on the coast my whole life, and had one near-miss in Virginia Beach in the mid-80's. Blew all the apples off our trees, and some friends who lived on the islands moved in with us for a few days.
The mysteries of probability.
