I have just added the table to WeatherWarrior.net that shows that 2005 has two of the top five ranked hurricanes by strength as indicated by air pressure readings.
Ophelia was pretty much a non-event. I had a project so, as close as it was, I still did not chase. Rita, of course was the next big story since Katrina. Again, nearing my old hometown, south Florida was once again focused on round one of Hurricane Rita. Luckily the winds were not strong yet, and the area affected was isolated to the lower Keys. There was no direct hit with Rita on the Keys, but it came really close.
Rita then made it's way through the Gulf Coast, as did Katrina, but Rita was on a more westerly course. However, landfall was not much further west of Katrina, striking the TX and LA state line. It also only made it to Cat3 at landfall.
At this point, on the downslope of Hurricane season (although still active through mid-Oct.), I am focusing more on my video and stock imagery efforts for the winter season. I am also focused on my health.
At the current, I have just had surgery with the new "PD" catheder, that will allow me to travel and work more freely. This should also mean I will be able to start up my finances again.
