Average means if u live on the Atlantic coast or Gulf of Mexico( Pacific cyclone too), every hurricane is a fear, a fright, a threat, and maybe an apocalypse. Having been with Baptist hurricane feeding & rescue groups for several decades, and knowing friends who were in Haiti and Puerto Rico, there is hardly any average storms. Thus, there is not too much "average", even when the storm misses your area...this week. Please pray about each hurricane & for survivors this year. Tornadoes also.
