 Barrel's still very much an active storm, but already a historic one. It strengthened from a tropical depression to a major hurricane in just 42 hours. That's only happened six other times in Atlantic hurricane history. Barrel also the earliest Cat 4 Atlantic hurricane on record. Before that, July 8th was the earliest. That was Hurricane Dennis in 2005. Barrel also owns the record for the farthest a hurricane has formed in the tropical Atlantic in June. I'm Clayton Neville.
