TS Tammy has just formed of the Florida coast.
Only 6 more storms and we get to the end of this years list, has it ever been done? -- Rob Overfield "Seasons don't fear the reaper, Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain.." |

Yup, I got it wrong. So I'd say, with about 7 weeks of the season left (30th November), that we could easily get to the end of the list. And from the website of the NHC: In the event that more than 21 named tropical cyclones occur in the Atlantic basin in a season, additional storms will take names from the Greek alphabet: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and so on. -- Rob Overfield Hull |

I don't know the exact number. It would be good if someone could check up on that. Gavin. |

Since storm naming started in it's current form, there hasn't been the need to use more than the 22 names allocated for any particular year. Jonathan |

I don't know the exact number. It would be good if someone could check up on that. Gavin. The storms weren't named in the 1930's. The most active year in that decade was 1933 with 23 reaching at least tropical storm intensity. At least that's what is in the archive but the detail was obviously much less reliable then compared to today. You can find the full archive for all oceans at http://weather.unisys.com/hurricane/index.html The North Atlantic archive goes back to 1851. Norman.
