Tropical Storm Cristobal was the third named storm of the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season. Cristobal developed offshore the coast of South Carolina from a frontal zone and then moved northeastward, parallel to the East Coast of the United States. Cristobal was a dry storm, as most of the convection was located east of the center throughout its lifetime, and thus rainfall was minimal. Cristobal caused $10,000 (2008) USD and no deaths.

- Tropical Storm Cristobal was the third named storm of the 2008 Atlantic hurricane season. It formed on July 19 from a trough of low pressure off the Southeast U.S. Coast. In a marginally favorable environment, it attained minimal tropical storm status later that day. The storm remained offshore, and peaked as a strong tropical storm on July 21 while it passed east of Cape Hatteras. It accelerated northeast parallel to the East Coast and became extratropical on July 23 near Nova Scotia. Because it was a weak storm and never made landfall, Cristobal's effects were mostly limited to moderate rainfall. The storm dropped 3.43 in (87 mm) of rain in Wilmington, North Carolina, where minor flooding was reported. Additionally, the extratropical remnants contributed to rainfall on Nova Scotia which
