The most recent storm was March 6th of last year - a late winter storm that started in Canada and made it all the way down to the Gulf - it hit the Gulf moving 35mph, packing internal winds of 50-60. The earlier storm was in June - not wanted, but somewhat expected as that was early hurricane season.
