Well, for the closest approach of an actual warm-core weather system I will likely ever experience unless I take up chasing hurricanes (doubtful) and setting a June record low pressure for Madison of 988 MB (which might have gotten it hurricane status had it occurred over the Gulf); Cristobal produced decidedly unmemorable weather IMBY. Just a showery, breezy afternoon. The big rains went west, the strongest winds and severe weather (what relatively little there was) missed east.
