"Dual Strike"-- Have two hurricanes hit the US on the same day?

[George Flickinger]

This question was brought to my attention by my wife as we're looking at NHC forecasts regarding Gustav and Hanna.

I don't recall a "dual strike", and a quick search of the NHC FAQs doesn't answer.

If two hurricanes have hit the US within a few hours of each other, I'm guessing a scenario of one hitting somewhere toward the middle or western Gulf with a second hurricane hitting the Atlantic Coast.

Thoughts?

In September 1933, two hurricanes made landfall in the U.S. within a day of each other. One hit Texas and the other Florida. Hurricane 11 and 12 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1933_Atlantic_hurricane_season
