If the unnamed storm had been identified and named when it formed, it would have ocurred that the Chris menace would have been Debby's menace. Repeating the 2000 stunt once again. Concidence or what!!!

Based on the report for Florence, it too had a complex genesis similar to horrible Hurricane Katrina. Two tropical waves merged with each other. One moved out on August 29th and another moved out on September 2nd, which moved even faster.

Interesting:

The 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron flew five missions into Florence, producing
15 center fixes. The maximum flight-level winds observed were 96 kt in the northeastern
eyewall at 700 mb at 1724 UTC 10 September. While this would normally support surface
winds of 85 kt, a subsequent pass through the northeastern eyewall measured winds of only 74
kt. This suggests the possibility the 96 kt winds were transient. Based on this assumption, the
peak intensity of Florence is set at 80 kt – a category 1 hurricane. However, it cannot be ruled
out the system briefly had category 2 status near 1800 UTC 10 October.
