There have been numerous Hurricane Irenes in history because the name cycles every 6 years and has not yet been retired. Most recently, Hurricane Irene in 2005 topped out at 105 mph.

So far the Hurricane Irene that is currently active peaked at 100 mph before weakening to 90 mph. Currently the storm is expected to reach a second peak of 125 mph later this week.
