Hurricane Cristobal

[WeatherWitness]

45-mph Tropical Storm Cristobal is now the third named storm in the Atlantic.  This storm could become the season's third hurricane by Wednesday morning (which means all three named storms so far would have become hurricanes at some point during their life cycle).  However, based on the latest models and official NHC projected path, this storm should NOT pose doom and gloom to the US.

Upgraded to a Category One hurricane. Not only is Cristobal the 3rd hurricane of the Atlantic hurricane season, it is the 3rd consecutive hurricane of the season as well.

Hurricane Cristobal is now our third hurricane of the Atlantic season, which means all named storms in the Atlantic so far have reached hurricane status at some point during their life cycle - a big change from last season.

Cristobal's winds are at 75 mph as of the 2 PM EDT advisory.  Bermuda may see some impacts from this system; otherwise, the storm will mainly be out in open waters.

I think you meant not only is Cristobal the 3rd named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season, it's the 3rd hurricane as well.

You basically said the exact same thing I said minus the word consecutive. I just meant that Arthur, Bertha, and Cristobal all became hurricanes in the Atlantic which would make it a continuous chain of named storms becoming hurricanes.

Ok, you're right we basically said the same thing.

Looks like Cristobal is well on it's way out to sea.

Sorry for the double post but Dolly is next. Any potential Dollys out there?
