The last Atlantic hurricane before Irene was Tomas, which lasted from October 29 to November 7, 2010, or about little less than 9 months before Irene formed

The last storm to be called a hurricane before Irene was Hurricane Greg in the eastern Pacific which lasted August 16-21, 2011, dissipating a day after Irene formed. Unlike Tomas, Greg was never a major news item because the storm nnever threatened land.
