With the Atlantic hurricane season in full swing, now is the time to do our retirement predictions for the 2012 Atlantic hurricane season.
Here are my predictions so far:
- Alberto - <1% - very minor effects on the East Coast.
- Beryl - 10% - strongest pre-season storm to hit the U.S., although effects were minor.
- Chris - 0% - fishspinner.
- Debby - 20% - moderate effects, but nothing too severe.
- Ernesto - 15% - some moderate effects, although Mexico has seen much worse before.
- Florence - 0% - fishspinner.
- Gordon - 10% - some impact on the Azores, but nothing severe.
- Helene - 5% - minor impact.
- Isaac - 60% - Damage total estimate is about $3 billion, so it could have a shot at retirement.
- Joyce - 0% - fishspinner.
- Kirk - 0% - fishspinner.
- Leslie - ?? - to early to determine, however, Bermuda should be watching this storm.
