Able The name Able has been used for three tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean. It is the first letter of the Joint Army/Navy Phonetic Alphabet, which was used from 1950 to 1952 for tropical cyclone names in the Atlantic Ocean. There was also a Tropical Storm Able in the 1996 Pacific typhoon season.**** Atlantic: 1950's Hurricane Able- Category 4 hurricane that ultimately hit Nova Scotia as a tropical storm.1951's Hurricane Able- Earliest recorded Category 3 hurricane. It threatened the Bahamas and North Carolina before moving out to sea. 1952's Hurricane Able- Long-lived, minimal hurricane that ultimately struck South Carolina, causing $2.75 million in damage and 3 deaths along its path through the eastern United States. In 1950 the U.S. Weather Bureau began using the phonetic alphabet to name hurricanes starting with Able. In 1953 the names were switched to that of women and in 1979 men's names were used for the first time. Hurricanes that were notable had their names retired with over 60 names retired so far. The very first hurricane name to be retired was Carol, hurricane Carol struck the Northeast U.S. late August 1954 as a category 3 hurricane with winds reaching 100 miles per hour.
