10 Atlantic Tropical Storms in 2006

Yesterday I noticed on the NHC site that they have revised the count of tropical storms from nine to ten. After a reanalysis it has been determined that a short lived system off the eastern coast of the US was in fact a tropical storm and not just a gale center.

The system was short lived, from July 17 to the 18. Max winds were estimated at 45mph and a minimum pressure of 998mb. The system will remain unnamed but becomes an official part of the 2006 tropical family.

In case you were wondering this storm occurred between Alberto and Beryl. Full report is available here.
