We are now going to take a look at yearly total of named storm days, hurricane days, and major hurricane days from 1851 to 2005. This data is similar to the data used by Dr. William Gray and his team at Colorado State University.

Hurricaneville has compiled data and constructed a database of all the storms and hurricanes from 1851 to 2005. Below is a table with the number of named storms, hurricanes, and major hurricanes during the period.
