wheres the one beginning with "G" gone???????

On August 30, the NHC began monitoring a tropical disturbance over the north-central Caribbean, giving it a 30% chance of development within 5 days.[70] Gradual organization occurred as the system moved northwestward toward the Bahamas, and at 18:00 UTC on September 2, it was designated Potential Tropical Cyclone Seven, as it was forecasted to impact land areas as a tropical storm within two days.[71] At 12:05 UTC on the next morning, the system organized into Tropical Storm Gordon while moving over the Florida Keys.[72] Although the storm intensified slightly as it moved over southern Florida, the core became disrupted and the associated convection became disorganized.[73] Emerging over the Gulf of Mexico late on September 3, Gordon began to strengthen further and become more organized, with a band of deep convection developing near the small core of the system. Late on September 4, Gordon reached its peak intensity with maximum sustained winds of 70 mph (110 km/h) shortly before making landfall just west of the Alabama-Mississippi border.[74] After making landfall, Gordon weakened into a tropical depression. The NHC issued its last advisory at 4:00 PM CDT on Wednesday, September 5. Moving further inland and quickly weakening, Gordon lingered over the southeastern United States for the next two days, before finally degenerating into a remnant low on September 8. The remnants of Gordon were absorbed by a frontal system the next day.[75]

Gordon is no more on.
