I remember one hurricane that went in circles in the gulf for days before finally making landfall. Can't remember which one it was but it was fun to watch. Does anyone else remember?
Elena was the one that went ashore a couple times and in circles a bit, if I recall correctly. I lived in Pensacola then. It got to the area south of the city, stopped, headed to La. and came back as a nothing.
Yes, I do! It was Juan or Kate, I think....in the mid-80's. We went to bed thinking it had passed us by only to wake up to it coming back!
It looks like NW Florida has dodged Katrina. We were packing up to evacuate. Our good fortune means someone else will take the brunt of this one. We haven't even finished repairs on our dock from Dennis!!
