Will Florida be hit by a hurricane in 2008?
This season hasn't had any hurricane strength landfall in Florida
Background:
It seems each time a hurricane forms in the Atlantic this markets odds go up only to be brought down once again as the storm enters the gulf. But luck doesn't continue forever and it's almost an assured thing that by the end of the season something nasty will hit, then again maybe luck does last forever or at least until the end of the hurricane season.
Statistically Florida usually gets hit in September and October so those two months are the ones to watch the satellite maps!
Settlement details:As reported by a major mainstream news source. The Hurricane must make landfall as a hurricane. Outlying islands (Key West) do count for settlement
