The Most Intense Hurricanes in the United States 1851-2004

...doesn't include ALL Cat 3 Hurricanes just the most intense, in terms of lowest recorded barometric pressure.

Katrina and RITA will be on the chart, most probably in the top 10, perhaps even the top five. In no single year year have two such intense storms struck the US.

And in the last two years, three of the top 17, four of the top 21, and five of top 41 (I forgot about Jeanne last year) have hit the US.

That's more than a "statiscal anomoly"; it is unprecidented.

So is this a trend we will be seeing in the next severl years?

Maybe , maybe not...

I see it more as a warning by God that he refuses to be mocked by America.

So you are saying that it is possibly a statistical anomaly then.
If we agreed all along why the argument?
