After the alternate 2015 season, the name Bill was retired and some person decided to bring back the name Bob for a another chance. So Bob formed on August 13 over the Caribbean over the Lesser Antilles. Bob turned towards Puerto Rico as TD Two. Two strengthened to TS Bob on August 14. Bob became a Category 1 over Hispaniola and a C2 over Jamaica and a Cat. 3 over The Bahamas. Bob made landfall in Florida as a Category 4 and Louisiana as a Category 2. It restrengthened and became a Category 5. The Category 5 made landfall in Florida with winds of 160 mph and pressure of 931 millibars. It weakened to a Category 4 and then a three and made landfall over the Carolina Borderline. Bob passed near New Jersey as a Category 2 and Rhode Island after restrengthening to a Category 3. Bob then made landfall over Canada as a ex-tropical hurricane and over Spain as a ex-tropical depression.
