One of the models that someone posted showed four storms hitting the Gulf Coast by mid-September.

I think that the big problem nationwide, if we get a succession of storms hitting across a wide area, even if they all don't hit the Gulf Coast, is a very long delay in getting all of the powerlines repaired, which will also of course affect gasoline stations.
