I voted just OK. Irene wasn't really what you would call exciting, but she certainly was interesting to watch. It was difficult to tell what she was going to do and where she was going to end up.
It doesn't matter to me. I have been busy putting tile on our floor till today. We could had had five named storms and I would not had known till today...of course that didn't happen!
Very interesting as it is heading this way, although likely to move more towards Iceland given the current track. (Anyway good thing this hasn't made landfall anywhere)
