Anyone know of resources with a listing of where/when hurricanes hit in the caribbean?  
I’m trying to determine a rough guide as to when hurricane season “ends” in various places in the Caribbean, but am having trouble finding out what gets hit when.

If you were one of the world’s leading experts on where hurricanes hit, the amount of devastation they can cause, etc., where would you choose to live? 😃
