Makes sense, health first rather something we could wait on for ages.


How are you doing by the way?

How are you doing by the way?

Staying indoors, and honestly I'm getting more and more worried by the day for my grandparents especially. They're leaving the over 80s behind according to what the media have said... we've been forced indoors and the police are guarding everyone. The streets are quiet, people hardly go out unless they really need food. But I get by. I'm at home right now with my family, was like that for the past week and a bit. I've never left my house for that time period. The North has it worse but still, we're worried. I'm glad you've asked. How about you?

I’m sure we’ll hear something about the retirement of Dorian at some point before the end of 2020. After all it was one of the strongest hurricanes to make landfall anywhere in the Atlantic basin tying with the 1935 FL Labor Day hurricane in terms of wind speeds at landfall. The Bahamas are still struggling a full six months later to make rebuilding progress, especially Marsh Harbor in Great Abaco.

So Dorian will still be retired via the teleconference?

So nothing about the retirement of Lekima, Faxai, Hagibis, Kammuri, or Phanfone at the typhoon committee teleconference. Nor anything about the replacement names for Rumbia or Mangkhut per the final report.

I think the same will happen with Dorian and possibly Imelda.

According to a reliable source of mine, the WMO is going to wait til 2021 to discuss retirements for the 2019 season.

What reason would they have for doing that though? Yes the meeting was held via video chat and not everyone could attend but that doesn't mean they couldn't make room to vote on the new names.

They were more concerned with improving for the upcoming season rather than focusing on the past.

Also this might sound creepy but what source did you use to find this information out?

Yeah, please give us sauce.
Were you or a close friend involved? They could have just simply retired but give no replacement name until next year.

Do you have the sauce?
And this goes for everything retirement concerned or just name replacements?

Everything in 2020 has been postponed to 2021 at this point.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Makes sense, I just kinda figured out they'd just talk about the upcoming season (and maybe how to deal with it if there's still the outbreak going on) but thanks for the sauce!

Imagine those three and more names in 2020 getting retired... that's an awful lot to get through...

At least the name won't come back up until 2025 no matter what, so they have time. They'll do double duty in 2021.

I'd lean strongly against Lorenzo since the only place it really hit was the Azores and not too seriously. Imelda...a year could let it slip especially if 2020 is a disastrous season. But there's no way Dorian escapes next year.

Since both 2019 and 2020 will be announced together, I updated the thread.
