Re: take, etc.

Other than a minor wind event for the outer banks area of North Carolina, I don't see "extratropical Gabriel" as anything to pay attention to.

What baffles me is why did the NHC use up a name on this storm? Has it been done before? I just don't recall an extr-tropical whatever being named previously.

A good tropical depression then should get a name in the future if we go by this thinking.

I continue to be a happy camper that the season for CONUS remains free from threats.

Life is good.
