How do they name hurricaines?

Hurricanes are named by the World Meteorological Organization. They use a rotating list of names, with each hurricane season having a predetermined list of names that are used in alphabetical order. If a storm is particularly deadly or costly, its name may be retired and replaced with a new name for future use.

Yes, every year has a list of names that will be assigned to storms in alphabetical order as they reach tropical storm intensity (for example the first in 2010 was Hurricane Alex followed by Tropical Storm Bonnie etc.). Each list of names is re-used every six years except for names of storms that are especially bad such as Andrew and Katrina.


How does the weatherman pick a name for a hurricane?

there are lists of names in alphabetical order. every year they use a different list. not every letter is represented (like Q). if they run to the end of the list, they start calling them by greek letters, very rare, but it happened recently. if a storm causes a lot of damage then the name is retired, and that list needs a new name for that letter (katrina, andrew). tropical storms get names, but not all of them turn into hurricanes and make the news, so sometimes it seems like the names are skipping around.
