Just found one that I wish to propose. One of my favorite storms for history:

ALL OF THE GLOBAL AND REGIONAL MODELS AGREE ON KEEPING THE
UPPER-LEVEL WINDS UNDER 15 KT AND GENERALLY OUT OF THE EAST ACROSS
THE ENTIRE CARIBBEAN SEA AHEAD OF -----. THEREFORE...AT LEAST STEADY INTENSIFICATION IS CALLED FOR. THE INTENSITY FORECAST IS CLOSE TO THE SHIPS MODEL...AND ACCOUNTS FOR LAND INTERACTION WITH THE YUCATAN PENINSULA BY 96 HOURS...BUT IS NOT NEARLY AS STRONG AS THE GFDL MODEL WHICH BRINGS ---- UP TO 91 KT IN ABOUT 72 HOURS.

FORECASTER STEWART

FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS

INITIAL 16/0900Z 13.2N 67.2W 40 KT
12HR VT 16/1800Z 14.1N 70.4W 45 KT
24HR VT 17/0600Z 15.0N 74.6W 50 KT

Wilma?

I've seen this one before... but I can't place a name on it. IIRC it dissipated before it could do anything.
