It’s possible we’re not done with Eta yet. The HWRF has it regenerate into a moderate or strong TS in the EPac.

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.

I think you mean Iota.

Be pretty interesting if it was Eta though. :wink:

Would be very 2020 for the first Greek East Pacific Storm to be Tropical Storm Iota...obviously not an EPAC forming Greek storm but still crazy.

I think the majority of this awful damage to Providencia island was caused by Iota, as Eta was considerably N of the island on it's approach to CA

I am in no way a professional. Take what I say with a grain of salt as I could be totally wrong. Please refer to the NHC, NWS, or SPC for official information.

Hopefully, Iota was the final boss battle for the insane 2020 season.

Everything else should be weak subtropical storms.

Name Retirement Question - Greek Alphabet

#1596 Postby jimpsummers » Wed Nov 18, 2020 12:37 pm

I wonder if Eta and Iota will be retired as storm names, even though they are in the Greek alphabet portion of the storm name list....

At the moment the rule is that a Greek name won't be retired, but that an extraordinary storm with a big impact (like indeed Eta and Iota this year) will be specifically referred to as Eta-2020 or Iota-2020 in the future. However, the discussion regarding this rule has been growing this year for obvious reasons, but there hasn't been any official announcement to date (that I know of) that the Greek naming and/or retirement system will be changed. We will probably hear more about it once the season has officially ended. There are already a few topics in the Talking Tropics section of the website if you want to read what other people on the forum think about the situation:

With What Names Will Eta and Iota Be Replaced? = http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=121604
What if one of the Greek alphabet storms is bad enough to be retired? = http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=121356

Death toll and damage is starting to come into play now. Over 20 dead now with many missing. Many more may have been buried in the mudslides in Nicaragua.

Does anyone have any idea what the best organizations to donate to the relief effort would be? I’m not sure which ones are performing the best in this crazy year.
