I read earlier that the Spanish Armada was severely hurt by a storm hitting Spain when they were battling England. Long time ago.

Don't you know, it's the Japanese and their weather machine, LOL. (What the Japanese have against Spain, I'm not quite sure.)

In the book "Isaac's Storm", author Erik Larson refers to a hurricane which hit Europe, in the past.

Actually Spain has been sufferung an extreme drought, the rain will probably be welcome there.
The funny thing is that the socilalists in Spain are big greeny weenies, and now their first tropical storm that will bring beneficial rains, the greenie weenies wil be spinning themself into pretzels.

I remember England being hit by a tropical system in the last 25 years. You sure this is the first?
To: bobjam
Not a tropical system, but I found this:
"The great storm of October 1987 was the worst to affect the south east of England since 1703. After the storm had passed the landscape was changed - some 15 million trees were felled and whole forests decimated. Buildings suffered severe damage and ships were driven on to shore. 16 people died as a direct result of the storm damage."

Say, I think we just broke a record for the number of named Atlantic Tropical Storms.

On Nov. 25, 1120 a fierce storm in the English Channel sank the "White Ship" carrying William Adelin the only legitimate heir to King Henry I of England. The following strife over succession brought on a period known as the "The Anarchy" the results of which was the ascension of the House of Plantagenet.
