PRINTThree Hurricane Threats for 2007
Do you think a hurricane will hit Myrtle Beach in June or July?
I have received several questions of late about what to expect. NOAA says it will be a busy hurricane season. In the 2007 edition we talk about three hurricane threats:
Mid August – Hurricane threat to Gulf Coast with copious amounts of rain.
Early September – Hurricane threat to Southern states.
Mid September – Hurricane threat to Mid Atlantic states.
More importantly, we call for some tremendous thunderstorms throughout the summer and some “dangerous heat” in several locations in July. Keep your eye to the sky and check the 2007 Farmers’ Almanac when planning your vacations. My heart goes out to the folks in Kansas who endured some of nature’s worst weather – tornadoes at night.

If you notice a hole in the upper left-hand corner of your Farmers' Almanac, don't return it to the store! That hole isn't a defect; it's a part of history. Starting with the first edition of the Farmers' Almanac in 1818, readers used to nail holes into the corners to hang it up in their homes, barns, and outhouses (to provide both reading material and toilet paper). In 1910, the Almanac's publishers began pre-drilling holes in the corners to make it even easier for readers to keep all of that invaluable information (and paper) handy.
