How many hurricanes came and names from 1945-2007?

A system is given a name when it attains tropical storm or subtropical storm status. The names go in alphabetical order. So for example, if there is a hurricane called hurricane Allen, ( like there was in the past ) the next storm in that basin in that year will go to B, like hurricane Bonnie. However letters not commonly used in names may be excluded. In the Atlantic Ocean the letters Q, U, X, Y, and Z are not used. In the eastern Pacific basin Q and U are not used. Each year has a list of names that is recycled every six years. This gives a total of 270 names on that system. A somewhat different system is used for Central Pacific hurricanes which uses 12 names ber year on a 4 year cycle giving a total of 48, bringing the total For hurricane names to 318. In other parts of the world the storms we call hurricanes go by different names such as typhoons. The generic term for such a storm is tropical cyclone. Other basins total to to 523 names, manning that, in total, there are 841 currently available tropical cyclone names. When a storm in bad enough it has its name replaced. And the retired name is, in most cases, never used to name a future storm.


Do hurricanes and tornadoes have something in common?

Yes.Hurricanes and tornadoes are both natural disasters that produce powerful, destructive winds that spiral cyclonically inwards via low pressure (clockwise in the southern hemisphere, counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere).Hurricanes have a calm, clear eye at the center of rotation and it is believed that many tornadoes have a similar feature.Both have scales for rating intensity:Tornadoes are rated on the Fujita scale from F0 to F5 based on damage, some countries, including the United States have upgraded to the Enhanced Fujita scale (EF0 to EF5).Hurricanes are rated on the Saffir-Simpson scale from Category 1 to Category 5.

Why are hurricanes called tropical cyclones in Australia?

Hurricanes are called cyclones in Australia.Contrary to some misguided opinions, they are not called 'Willy-Willies'.A 'Willy-Willy' is a dust tornado - sometimes called a 'dust devil' in other parts of the world. They usually occur in dry arid inland locations and can have a strength from a near invisible uplift draft that barely lifts a loose saltbush or tumbleweed bush to a severe type that is very visible (from the dust) and can be quite destructive.In actual fact, cyclone is the generic name for all forms of the weather phenomenon that includes hurricanes and typhoons. The term cyclones encompasses the clockwise-rotating tropical storm/low of the Pacific and the anti-clockwise equivalent in the Americas and the Asian seas. However, they also have the distinction of being named hurricanes and typhoons respectively to qualify the area of the world in which they have formed.
