Just remember that some day the hurricane WILL come. Just not this year. If you live in Florida, you better not forget about hurricanes.

Yes.
There is other severe weather (tornadoes, lightning) to be aware of, as well.
It's not always the sunshine state.

Well, this will certainly be a HUGE bullet dodged for the first year of the expanded citizens fund if no hurricanes come in.

A couple more years of no hurricanes and they may actually have enough money gathered to fund the claims and not have to raid the taxpayers.

I'm REALLY hoping for a couple more quiet years. fingers crossed.

Well you know they say 3 times is a charm. Maybe next year they can get all excited again and hope for the worst. I can't wait to hear why the predictions were wrong this year. What did they blame it on last year. El nino?
I didn't see them predicting Katrina.
