The National Hurricane Center, at the National Weather Service, has been naming large weather formations (hurricanes, typhoons and tropical cyclones) since 1953. Today, the lists are kept by the World Meteorological Organization. There are six pre-determined lists of names for these weather formations, and the lists rotate over the years. The 2013 names are the same as those from 2007. Each list has names from A through W. The Names are only taken off the list and replaced when a storm is so damaging or deadly as to make the use of the name is future years would be insensitive to those affected.

Betsy would have been the second storm of the year.
