In the Atlantic and eastern Pacific they north of the equator are called hurricanes. In the western Pacific north of the equator they are called typhoons. In the northern Indian ocean they are called very severe cyclonic storms.
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.
The next three Atlantic named storms after Ike were Josephine, Kyle, and Laura. However, only Kyle became a hurricane, the others were only tropical storms. The three storms to reach hurricane strength after Ike were Kyle, Omar, and Paloma.

For the Atlantic ocean the first three names will be Andrea, Barry, and Chantal. The first three in the Pacific will be Alvin, Barbara, and Cosme. Note that a tropical system does not need to become a hurricane to be named, just a tropical storm.
Tropical storms, typhoons, cyclones, an hurricanes all have different names but are the same disaster. The terms refers to a large scale closed circulation system in the atmosphere which combines low pressure and strong wins. The winds rotate counter clockwise in the northern hemisphere an clockwise in the southern hemisphere.

The first 3 tropical storms of 2011 will be Arlene, Bret, and Cindy. However, there is no way of know if all or any of them will reach hurricane strength.
The storm names are Ike, Hanna and the newest joesiphine the are all supposed to be devistating and these storms are not over yet new storms or mabe even hurricanes are supposed to form soon!! This is said to have been the WORST hurricane season yet!! So let those who have been affected be these storms be in our hearts at this hard time!
no i do not know i am asking you,
It is given its name before in even becomes a hurricane. Storms are named when they reach tropical storm status. Roughly half of all tropical storms become hurricanes.
hurricanes typhoons and cyclones........... your welcome
There are three main factors that affect the formation of tropical storms. First, tropical storms can only form over warm ocean water as it is the moisture from these oceans that fuels them. So they are mainly limited tropical regions. Second, wind shear can essentially tear a storm apart, so tropical storms usually do not form often in places with strong wind shear. As an example, the southern Atlantic ocean experiences a lot of wind shear, making tropical storms there extremely rare. Third, tropical storms need a strong Coriolis Effect to form as this is what drives their rotation. As a result tropical storms cannot form on the equator, and rarely form very close to it.
NATURAL FORCES, FIRE and TROPICAL STORMS (but there are many other threats to the rain forests)
