Alan Sealls Weather

As I wrote in this week's Lagniappe Daily, don't assume a forecast or outlook for a "below normal," "below average," "quieter than normal," or "less active" hurricane season means you can't take a direct strike from a major storm. Those are all statistical terms that don't equate to "good" or "bad." Always remember that these forecasts are for the ENTIRE Atlantic Ocean basin, not for your county.
