  1. I went from Jan 1st through June 30th of all the years I looked at. I stopped at June 30th to prevent any contamination from tropical systems making landfall. I searched NCDC for my info. Once we get back into the 70's tornado reports drop considerably and many were probably not reported like they have been in the last 30 years or so.

    There were 17 years without a landfalling tropical system. The average tornado count between Jan 1st and June 30th for those non-landfalling years is 8.8 tornado confirmations(doesn't mean there weren't more that went unreported). Of the landfalling years which equaled 9 years the average number of tornado confirmations was 28.4 for NC. If you add this year to the numbers we have 65 tornadoes on the NCDC site http://www4.ncdc.noa...?wwevent~storms that I am using and that increases the average to 32.1 for years with landfalling tropical systems.

    Years that have had landfalls 32.1 average

    years without 8.8.

    Not scientific but the numbers speak pretty clearly......feel free to provide me evidence that my numbers are wrong.

    Nice research Shaggy/Downeast....... Don't worry about Widreman, he gives everyone a hard time. We overlook him as much as possible. He's still mad because the trees in his yard caught all the snow last winter.
