This reminds me of the cat1 hurricane (don’t know name) we rode out on the beach front in Port Bolivar, TX back when I was either 13 or 14 (somewhere around ‘68 or ‘69). That storm sat off shore for a day or 2 and then blasted inland and and caught us all by surprise. Of course we didn't have all the technology then to keep us abreast of its development. The day before it hit we rode the ferry to school over in Galveston and I thought the thing was gonna flip. They stopped it after they got us back across that afternoon. By nighttime the water was coming in under the beachhouse and cut us off at Crystal Beach from leaving. Scariest night of my life.

Please pardon my weather ignorance—but this chart shows the storm possibly moving to the east coast? Is it possible for
a storm that big to re-form into another hurricane once it hits the waters of the Atlantic?

Hopefully no such thing exists, but I was just wondering if there’s even a chance of this happening.
