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.

Nope, I was wrong. After looking some stuff up, I discovered:
THE HISTORICAL RECORD SHOWS NO TROPICAL CYCLONE EVER MAKING LANDFALL
ON THE IBERIAN PENINSULA. BASED ON SURFACE REPORTS FROM FARO
PORTUGAL...THE CENTER PASSED JUST TO THE SOUTH OF THE COAST OF
PORTUGAL...BEFORE BECOMING THE FIRST TROPICAL CYCLONE TO MAKE
LANDFALL IN SPAIN.
I don't know what exactly I was remembering...I'll have to look that one up!

I remember England being hit by a tropical system in the last 25 years. You sure this is the first?
