The absence of extreme weather is often called “fair weather”, so I’ll use that to describe the record number of days to pass in Florida without a hurricane making landfall anywhere in the state. With Hermine crossing northern Florida this morning briefly at hurricane strength, the record is now set at 10 years between 2006 and 2016.
The chart shows the number of hurricanes making landfall in Florida in each year, the highest year being 4 such storms in 2004. It is unprecedented to go a full decade without any hurricanes hitting Florida. The previous lull was 7 years between 1987 to 1994. The serious category 4 storms (max winds 125+ miles/hr) are listed below, showing how active was the previous decade.
| 2005 | Wilma, Katrina, Dennis | ||
| 2004 | Ivan, Frances, Charlie | ||
| 1998 | Mitch, George | ||
| 1995 | Opal |
Summary
The plateau of mild temperatures in this decade coincides with unprecedented fair weather, not extremes as alarmists claim.

The plateau of global temperatures over the past two decades – “the pause” – is disproportionate to the increase in climate alarmism which coincides with the rise of mobile/video phones and CCTV, with extreme weather content captured and uploaded to social media, and lovingly aired by CAGW-sympathetic mainstream media, leading to the mass climate hysteria we bear witness to daily.
