A record since records where being kept.

I will ask this hypothetical though just because I'm in one of those moods. How do we know this hasn't happened before prior to records being kept?

It almost certainly has. No one is arguing that today's weather is more extreme than it's ever been.

I'm only really here to give props to the title of the thread...it made me chuckle

This Alpha nonsense wouldn't have to happen if they'd just make room for Hurricane Xavier and Hurricane Zazu. Hurricane Yves. What other letter do they leave out? Hurricane Quincy.Quin. If this is the first time we've gotten this far since we started keeping track then the relative lack of names shouldn't be a problem.

That's it, that's what I'm dedicating my political energies to, that...I like spinning my wheels...

This wouldn't be happening if we had just listened to Sheila Lee of Texas and added some black names to the list. We ignored her prophetic warnings of impending doom unless we allowed more names, but we ignored her!
Now we will all suffer for our hubris.

Instead of going with greek letters, I think they should have named this one Hurricane Hurricane.
I mean, if we are going to be strapped for ideas, we should do so in a dynamic way, or maybe start naming the Hurricanes after things that the Meteroligists see on their desks:
here comes Hurricane Pencil, Experts suspect that Hurricane Analogue Clock may have caused 5,000 casualties, Hurricane Half Full Cup of Coffee has attained level 3 status, and, of course, Hurricane Not Quite Successfully Hidden Porno Mag has devastated much of the east coast.

Fine, I suppose, except for two of them:
"Hurricane II: The Return" Should, instead, be "Hurricane II: Electric Boogaloo" and "Hurricane 1337" should be "Hurr1c4n3 1337"
That would have to be Hurricane Hurricane Hurricane Hurricane, because Mr. Hurricane was not to be out done.
I have been outreferenced, now there is no hope for my honor but to commit Seppuku, bring me my frisbee and cream!

Meh, I was egotistically referencing myself...though boogaloo is funnier.

They should call it Agamemnôn. (the steadfast). They won't of course, and instead we will be punished with this alpha rubbish. Atreidês would be preferable also.

Just think of what hurricanes were like back in the Triassic, with all of that ocean to give it room to grow and get stronger...Remember Typhoon Tip, back in October 1979....http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4e/Typhoonsizes.jpg
