Worldwide Tropical Cyclone Names

Worldwide Tropical Cyclone Names
I was wondering why hurricanes always seemed to be named after ladies (apart from Ivan)... Here is the answer. But all you American folk probably knew this already...

Interesting. I'm thinking the name 'Katrina' will possibly be retired and replaced. Cyclone Sharon!! \Speaking of Sharon, i just received the instant album from flickr (inspired by you featuring it on your blog). What can i say, it's an utter page turner :) . I had anticpated poor quality prints given the low resolution of the images saved on flickr but they aren't all that bad. Overall a great idea.
thanks.

Nope didn't know that! We don't have too many hurricanes on this side of the country so I guess I hadn't paid too close attention. It's funny how we want to know more when it touches us personally then other times we just let things slide. Thanks for the tip!
