2024 Hurricane Season

BTW
"Back in these early days, storms were really just named on a whim. Connecting a name to a storm didn’t imply all that much about the storm–and it still doesn’t. In 1903, as a friendly gesture, a first officer gave the name Wragge to a monsoon. But when public figures opposed his projects, Wragge tacked their names onto storms, allowing him to take pleasure in reporting certain politicians as “causing great distress,” or “wandering aimlessly about the Pacific.”

In case you missed it. There was a storm named Gordon that formed in the mid Atlantic a fuzzeled out today. It did not impact any land mass. The only way we knew anything about it was by weather satellites. Fifty years ago we would have never known the storm existed. Technology is one of the reasons why we know about so many more storms today. They have always existed we just didn't know about them.

I don't know how these storms go through the alphabet twice, three times back to back.

While I was in Hawaii there was Hone, Gilma, Hector in the Pacific. Two H storms and a G.

I come home and the same letters are being used.
