    3 am tonight will be 7 days.. I am 50 years old,was born and raised here,I have seen some bad storms come through in that time.. In those 50 years this is the first time I have been without power for this long. Usually you see trucks staged before storms,I did not see anything staged this time.. Staging equipment is a good tactic but costly.. It looks like they went with the 'hope' tactic.. It's a terrible tactic but much cheaper on the front end.

    No it's not. Per NOAA: On the century time scale (e.g., since 1900) there has been no significant trend in annual numbers of U.S. landfalling tropical storms, hurricanes, or major hurricanes (Fig. 1). A decreasing trend since 1900 in the propagation speed of tropical storms and hurricanes over the continental U.S. has been reported. Basin-wide annual counts of tropical storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes since the late 1800s show strong rising trends, but after taking into account changes in observing capabilities, studies suggest no strong evidence for a significant upward trend

    Right. I remember just a few short years ago, there were no hurricanes on the gulf coast, no tornadoes in parts of the country that have been called "tornado alley" for years and years, no flooding anywhere. I never understood why those houses on the coast or near rivers were built on stilts years and years ago. Just blue skies year round.
