HelpRe: What names do you think should be retired?
in reply to a message by Interstate
I think they should retire all of them.
Retire that whole system and start naming storms with, I dunno, obscure sciency nouns.
Hurricane Arcsecond, Typhoon Clathrate, Tropical Storm Emmetropia
Or name them using the scientific genus names of plants or insects.
Hurricane Larix, Typhoon Ixodes ... why not??
Or for the month and year with letters to count them: Hurricane 2024 July-B, Typhoon 2025 April-A ...
Anything but people-names.

I strongly agree! Look how everyone treated Katrina...it's not fair to the people.
