The average is ~ 2 years.

Could be a rough ride for a few years.


I don't know where you got that information, but it is totally twisted.

And maybe I just dreamed where I was last October when I had to evacuate NC. I guess that last year's hurricane that hit the East Coast didn't count since it only did $1.5 BILLION of damage, and it only killed 48 people. The confirmed deaths included 12 in Florida, five in South Carolina, three in Georgia, 26 in North Carolina, and two in Virginia.
