   We began the month of August with Tropical STorm Colin in   
   the Atlantic.  Colin built up as a depression, became a   
   tropical storm briefly then weakened, then strengthened again   
   on Thursday, August 5.   
      
   By the beginning of the next week Colin had dissipated.   
      
   ON the pacific side Tropical STorm Estelle wandered about   
   for awhile, never reached hurricane strength or threatened   
   land areas.   
   At the end of the month EArl was gathering strength and   
   ready to give all sorts of folks a test of their preparedness.
