Trust me doug, I know my history, and I know it hasn't been that long.

And I know what Storms hit here (Florida) as Hurricanes since 1979 (When the naming lists we see today started being used):

David (1979 - Category 2)

Dennis From 1981 (But it became a Hurricane AFTERWARDS)

Barry from 1983 (Same as Dennis, it became a Hurricane After)

Bob from 1985 (Again, same result as the Last Storms)

We ALMOST took a Direct hit by Elena from 1985

Kate from 1985 (It was either a Category 1 or 2)

Floyd from 1987 (Category 1)

SORT-OF Keith from 1988 (They DID say it was a Hurricane-Force ETS so I'm KINDA Counting this storm)

And how could anyone forget ANDREW from 1992? (Strong Category 4 or Weak 5 at Landfall)

Gordon from 1994 (Though it too became a Hurricane After)

Almost Allison from 1995 (It weakened before Landfall)

Erin from 1995 (At least a Category 1)

Part of Opal from 1995 (Category 3)

The list goes on.. but trust me, I know my History.. and if ANYONE has gone a long time with out a Hurricane or Proper Hurricane Landfall is Probably New York or Georgia
