Has any place gotten hit by two hurricanes in a row before?

Hurricanes Charley, Frances, and Jeanne all hit Florida within 35 days between August and September of 2004. Ivan hit Alabama, but also impacted Florida, within that time-frame. Frances and Jeanne made landfall just 20 miles and 2 weeks apart, the only time such an event has happened in such close proximity on both accounts.

Hurricane Katrina hit Florida (long before becoming a monster) in August 2005, and then Wilma hit in October of that year (well after obliterating Cancun.)

Trivial fact: Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne were only the third and fourth time Walt Disney World had ever closed, in it's then 33 years. Prior closures were from Hurricane Floyd in 1999, and an evacuation/closure during 9/11. The only other time it closed was as a precaution for Hurricane Matthew, last year.
