However, Vince in 2005 was much further east (18.6W), it just wasn't a Cape Verde hurricane. Still though, that's quite impressive. Conditions out there are ridiculously favorable this year.
EDIT: Frances in 1980 seems to hold the non-Vince record, becoming a hurricane at 25.6W. In addition to Ivan, also in 1980 (30.5W), these are the only hurricanes that have formed east of 32W in the modern era. As far as I can tell, Julia is the fourth-easternmost hurricane to develop in the Atlantic basin (this of course doesn't count storms that moved into these longitudes while they were already hurricanes).
