Recon never made it to TD 8. Mechanical problems most likely forced them to turn around and go back.
Several storms of the past have formed in the Western Gulf and intensified to the cat 1 level and higher, most recently Claudette of 2003. The Galveston area was hit by Cindy in 1963, Debra in 1959, and an un-named storm in 1943, which was at least a cat 2. All of which formed in the Western Gulf.
