Hurricane weather module

Has anyone developed a Pertmaster Hurricane weather module for the Houston - Gulf Coast region that they will share? The current module seems to be for Jamaica or other frequent target.

I would be happy to offer my feeble attempt as a starting point, if anyone has some historical data that might be applied.

Thanks.

    Hi Dennis

    I am sure that NASA at Houston have some sort of predictive software that they can share with you.

    Otherwise look at the records of the last 5 years and work out the statistical probability of a hurricane hitting your project.

    Set this in your calendar for your current project and then update when hurricanes actually happen.

    Hardly a contingency in Hereford Herefordshire or Hamshire as My fair Lady would have it.

    Thanks Mike but the data i have been able to find is neither as specific nor as detailed as I would like - generally only annual totals. The best I have found are two charts for Morgan City and Sabine Pass.

    I was hoping someone else may have some better data. Again thanks for the response.

    Hi Dennis

    You are right - a quick google gave no list of hurricne data over the years.

    You may want to try:

    www.wxresearch.com/outlook/2007hurout.pdf.

    which does seem to have some information.

    In hindsight it may well be:

    Give it a try.

    PS I have a personal interest in this because my family are flying back from Houston to Norwich International this afternoon.
