In quebec, when there's a huge snow storm/power outtage and people are 'locked' in their home for a day or two, there's a statistically significant "peak" in births nine months or so later.


Similar thing in the south with hurricanes? Or is the the wind and thunder not romantic like a lovely snow storm?





p.s.: this thought came to mind while looking at buff's wife. Thanks

I also wonder about the flip side
Is there an increase in the homicide rate for families during blizzards and hurricanes

Funny you should mention this. I found out last night that my wife is pregnant with a hurricane baby!
