Sure is a quiet hurricane season

[sinclair1]

Make us nervous to book our usual Sept trip. We have not been hit but once in 23 years with a few close calls before or after our trip.

This year sure seems different, can’t remember a clear slate on booking day ever.

Remember, Michael hit the second week of October.

It has me worried it’s gonna be a strong finish.

Most of the hurricanes I remember occurred on or after Labor Day weekend.

It only takes one and still 3-4 weeks from the average seasonal peak, but it has been quiet.

Mid September is the peak.

we go mid Sept every year. We can usually see where to book by looking at what’s out there and how the jet stream is working. Super quiet!

One of the downsides to bringing the pup. Dog friendly beach houses fill up fast and we have to book early.
Sept 17th is our check in day this year.

Hopefully nothing here at the house this year. Ian went around us last year

Saying that Q word at the fire house will get you rough talked. Hoping for a mild season, no sense in getting all the cotton stalks tangled again this year.

Africa needs to quit shooting hurricanes at us!

Hurricane Hazel hit Johnston County NC October 15 1954. Many on this site were not even alive then but I was. I was a scared 8 year old boy we didn't even know the Hurricane was coming. Hazel hit our area one day after my birthday I was in school the teachers made all the students get in the hallways and sit down along the walls until the storm passed. My Grandparents were in the old packhouse grading tobacco not knowing that a bad storm was about to hit them.

Looks like things are ramping up with storms coming off Africa at the present time. I have been in quite a few Hurricanes in the past, I surely hope I never see another one but I guess we shall know soon enough.
