A New Record

As I mentioned before in A Potential New Record, if Ike made a landfall in the the US, it would set a new record.

Dolly [Category 2], Edouard [Tropical Storm], Fay [Tropical Storm], Gustav [Category 2], Hanna [Category 1], and Ike [Category 2] – six consecutively named storms hitting the US in a single year.

This is the third time in the Hedgemony’s reign that at least five in a row has occurred, [2002, 2004, and 2008].

The disturbing news, politically speaking, is it didn’t happen in the election year that saw Democratic Party gains. Good thing people don’t believe in omens and such.
