For some unknown reason, everytime I read the thread title I start singing "I am a shape" (from cbeebies Mister Maker)

 

[SophiasMummy]

1992 - Hurricane Andrew (FOB),
65 deaths
175 mph windspeed
catagory 5
(expected really all FOB does is cause destruction)

1975 - Tropical storm Amy (me) never made it to a full blown hurricane just a bad tropical storm

There has never been a hurricane Sophia, hurricanes are named alphabetically each year and its very rare that there are enough storms to get to the letter 's' during the season
