Name That Storm! Vol.2

Okay... we're in the dead of the offseason (for all the Atlantic basin atleast), so why not have a little fun? I remember this thread from late 2007, we seemed to enjoy it, so let's give it another shot.

RULES: Just some general guidelines.

1.) Satellite images, radar images, and pieces of advisories can be posted. (as long as the advisory highlight gives a clear clue as to the storm, not just "...THE..." or anything.

2.) Try to keep only one storm going at a time, please. Anyone can post a storm, just not all at once. :P

3.) Images with multiple storms are still 1 point. If you can guess 1 storm, you can guess all of them.

3.) Try not to make it too easy. An example of too easy would be this.
Image
Seriously... it has the storm name in the image, it's obviously Andrew, because that's one of the most recognizable hurricanes ever, and the link is undisguised.

4. Try not to make it stupid impossible hard. Example:
Image
The link is disguised, which is good, but this image is ridiculous. Would you guess that's Dolly?

Alright, let's kick this thing off with the first name-that-storm. I started a new thread to avoid confusion with the old thread. I'll start with an image, easy one.

only other guess I would have is Barry 2007 (though you did say name that HURRICANE!) so your question is already bad since this one never became a cane!

Barry struck near Tampa as a TD (2007 Barry that is, 2001 was Panhandle)

Arlene was moving NNW, so that position is possible

Reminds me of Barry 2007 which made landfall as a
depression here, sustained winds around 20-30 mph
with a brief gust to 40-45 mph in the intense
squall that moved through here that morning...but it could also be 2006's Alberto
or 2005's Arlene

Oh wow... It was Barry, actually.

Well, the last thread was called "Name That Hurricane" So I kept it that way. I was hoping no one would take it toooo literally. I'll change it.
