The system at 11/46 has a LLC in could easly form convection. I would say it would not take much to get t numbers. Will the nhc upgrade most likely not like they did bret. This has to do better then Bret.

[HurricaneHunter914]

No offense, but Bret really wasn't much of a storm to remember. Except when it was the Bret that hit Texas as a Cat-4.

[cheezyWXguy]

i cant believe that Cat 4 bret didnt get the name retired...was it really small or something that wasnt very important?

It hit an area where no one lived and it was rather small as well. Corpus Christi and Brownsville only got brushed by the storm.

[cheezyWXguy]

oh...ok thanx, brent!

[AnnularCane]

Happy birthday Bret. You may not have lasted long, but I still remember you.

(Actually, your short life is probably the only thing I remember about you. )

Yep, its 140 mph winds were mainly felt by horses...only about 600 people lived in the area affected by hurricane-force winds.

yeah, talk about Texas getting lucky with that one! Imagine what would have happened had that storm hit Brownsville or Corpus directly!

[HurricaneHunter914]

Oh well Bret will have his chance again in 5 years.
