| Tropical Storm Arthur

Arthur is the first reported tropical storm to form in May since Tropical Storm Arlene in 1981. Other systems have formed, but were subtropical (such as Andrea in 2007). Given Arthur’s very short lifespan, Jeff Masters questions whether it would have been reported and named in the years prior to today’s technology.The formation of Arthur also marks the first time that a named storm formed in May for two consecutive years
