Tropical Depression Six forms in Northwest Gulf

Edouard was the storm that tried to get going, but just never got it together. Landfall was mostly a non event except for some rain in relatively spotty areas. It was the storm that would have been much more a problem without the saving grace of the windshear that kept it in check. Ed wanted to strengthen, and do so rapidly, but could not.

Ed has crossedl over Florida, about has exited into the gulf, shear still existing. I doubt Ed has much "life" left in it.

Tropical Depression #6 has formed, and probably will become Fay. But nothing more than a tropical storm.

Folks along Texas are watching it with interest. As a warning has been issued for the area.

We are still watching all of them.
Along with areas in the Eastern Atlantic.
