What happens with Greek hurricane names if we get a doozy

[celticdragonfly]

I found this on the wunderground.com blog today, and I know I'd been asking this question in general and I think others on my flist may have too.

I know I said this in yesterday's blog, but it bears repeating since I get asked this question all the time: There are no provisions for what to do in the event we have to retire Beta's name and replace it on the list of hurricane names. One possibility is that the storm will be dubbed Beta-2005 and the name Beta will be reused. Another possibilty is that Beta will be skipped over next time the Greek alphabet comes into use.

Also he says that Alpha may have killed more people than Wilma.
