*Whenever
a Hurricane has had a major impact, any Country affected by the
storm can
request that the name of the Hurricane be "Retired"
by agreement of the World
Meteorological Organization (WMO). Retiring a name actually
means that it cannot be
reused for at least 10 years, to facilitate historic references,
legal actions, insurance claim
activities, etc. and avoid public confusion with another storm
of the same name. If that
happens, a like gender name is selected in English, Spanish or
French for Atlantic Storms.
A great number of destructive storms are not included on this
list because they
occurred before the Hurricane naming convention was established
in 1950. Source |
