Nothing.

I mean that one coastal low should have been named.  6 inches of rain here and coastal flooding.

I think we need to see how the next few weeks play out, but definitely true that most missed the early September peak of the season being historically dead.

I don't expect anything from these two tropical waves.  They could become hurricanes but are likely out to sea.

With a trough possibly in SE Canada at the time of closest approach no direct hit is definitely on the table.

Interesting about Hurricane Gabrielle.  Heated straight to Portugal.

GFS has gone back and forth with a CAG or western Caribbean genesis for several days now. The Euro not so much. This far out

Over the many years I've seen tropical systems reach the Azores and even Portugal itself but North Africa? I don't recall ever seeing that. Anyone else? 

Imagine if it circled around for a second run across the Atlantic, storm trackers would lose their minds. (Yes I know the Sahara would make that problematic. How about a run into the Mediterranean? LOL)

Another wild 18z Euro run.... has a 966 mb and a 933 mb hurricane off the coast.

Tropical Storm Delta in 2005 is the only Atlantic tropical cyclone on record to reach Africa at any point in its life - in Delta's case, it was as a moderate extratropical cyclone. It also caused significant wind damage to Canary Islands:
