Default 1999 Atlantic Hurricane Season and the timeline

Some of the canon works mention Hurricanes in them but the real 1999 Atlantic hurricane season was devastating to the Caribbean, Mexico and the US. Just want to get input from people on the board and see what they think.

My question is should only the events from the canon be used for natural weather events or should the real life events be incorporated instead for both those writing for the game and for campaigns? For instance Hurricane Dennis and Floyd devastated North Carolina and Dennis did a lot of damage in the Virginia, PA and Maryland area - to the point that in some cases it might change or influence canon events

and you can imagine what would have happened with no functioning warning network

Similarly Hurricane Lenny hit Grenada, Puerto Rico, the Lesser Antilles and the Virgin Islands leaving a hell of a lot of devastation.

Love to get people's opinions - I would be thinking the same reasoning would apply to things like earthquake events in areas where there werent influences (like for instance nuclear weapon detonations) that might have changed the real world event.
