2010 was the first season since 1900 with 10 or more hurricanes in which none struck the United States.

Huh?

"On September 8, 1900, a hurricane struck Galveston. Winds estimated at 140 mph swept over the island, leaving devastation in their wake. After the storm surge of 15.7 feet subsided, Galvestonians left their shelters to find 6,000 of the city's 37,000 residents dead and more than 3,600 buildings totally destroyed."

Not a problem. There were only three Atlantic hurricanes and four tropical storms in 1900.
