How long does a hurricane take to form?
Hurricane Katrina formed over the Bahamas on 23 August 2005, and on that same day it crossed Florida as a Category 1 storm. A low pressure system's strengthening into a hurricane in less than 24 hours is unusual. Six days later, on 29 August, it made landfall in New Orleans as a Category 3 storm. (Katrina had been a Category 5 for a time while it was churning in the Gulf of Mexico.) By August 31, Katrina was an extratropical cyclone -- essentially an area of low pressure -- over Pennsylvania. The storm was considered to have dissipated completely on 3 September, but Katrina really had hurricane characteristics for eight days.

The Labor Day Hurricane, Florida Keys, September 2, 1935, Category 5, 892 mb, Approaching 200 mph...hurricane Katrina was the third lowest at 920mb

How can i get a hurricane named after me?
No; hurricanes are named off a list determined before the season even begins. It's possible that a hurricane name will be retired and one day replaced with your name, though.You can also check on Wikipedea if your name is on there. Just type in in the search, Hurricane _______ <---Your name goes there. If you get a page that has more than just one hurricane (i.e. 1994 Atlantic Hurricane season) then you should look in that page's table of contents to see your name (they are in alphabetical order) If your name is like a really well know hurricane, such as Hugo or Katrina or Andrew, than congrats!!
What day did hurricane Rita hit Louisiana?

Can the same hurricane happen twice?
Either the creative team, or Gregory Helms, was tired of "the hurricane," but he might be "the hurricane" again some day. I mean, the Undertaker changed his gimmick to the American Badass, for awhile, then returned to his original gimmick, so Gregory may do the same thing.
