When was the last time you saw a named system that started with 'T'?

What happens if they get past Z? I'm curious.

Only names left are Vance and Wilma...Hurricane season is still another month and a half.

After we are done with Wilma this season, if and when that does occur, we would head into a secondary listing that would include the greek alphabet....

 

so it'd be

 

Hurricane Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda, Mu, Nu, Xi, Omicron, Pi, Rho, Sigma, Tau, Upsilon, Phi, Chi, Psi, Omega....

No, according to our relative experts, Charlie would be after Beta.

lol...check the noaa webpage.....

Thanks "Mafia Princess"

In the event that more than 21 named tropical cyclones occur in the Atlantic basin in a season, additional storms will take names from the Greek alphabet: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and so on.

you are confusing greek alphabet and phonetic alphabet son.

No- you are all wrong-

 

After Hurricane Wilma, then there's Hurricane Betty, Hurricane Fred, Hurricane Barney, Hurricane Pebbles and Hurricane Bam-Bam.

 

 

Then, we go through the WB characters.

 

 

Much nicer way of naming storms, don't you think?????

I know the greek alphabet you asshats. I just didn't know that's how the extra storms were based.

Remnants of Stan may form into a tropical system in the Gulf.

 

It's weird that they wouldn't keep the name, even though it is a newly reformed system. Same thing happened with Ivan, and they kept the name after it developed again.

 

Oh well, here comes Vince. Should affect the West coast of Florida over the weekend or early next week. Tropical depression, storm, hurricane? Who knows.
