Hurricane Prep and Storm-Season RV Storage in Georgia

Of the 25 hurricanes NOAA records in Georgia since 1851, 25 arrived in months our season rule marks as camping at Atlanta (Mar, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep, Oct and Nov). At Savannah the count is 25 in months camping. 3 have come since 2000 and 3 were Category 3 or stronger.

In NOAA's record, Georgia impacts fall most often in August (8), October (8) and September (7). An RV at Atlanta is camping in all three by our season rule, and camping in 6 of the 6 season months overall, so settle storage before June 1.
