Of the 18 named Atlantic tropical storms that occurred in 2011, 7 became hurricanes. Those storms were Irene, Katia, Maria, Nate, Philippe, Ophelia, and Rina. In the Pacific there were 11 named storms of which 10 became hurricanes. Those hurricanes were Adrian, Beatriz, Calvin, Dora, Eugene, Greg, Hilary, Irwin, Jova, and Kenneth.
The first three names on the Atlantic list are Andrea, Barry, and Chantal. The first three East Pacific names will be Alvin, Barbara, and Cosme. However these names will be assigned to tropical storms, and it is unknown which, if any, of these storms will reach hurricane status.
