The conference is now added to the list of important dates prior to June 1.In this conference the new list of names for 2011 will be revealed and we will know which 2005 Hurricanes will be retired.

[CrazyC83]

We should also know the procedure for beyond 21 named storms at that conference for starting this year. We may also get new recommendations for forecasting and warnings (it sometimes happens).

Not ready for 2007 let alone 2006

[meteorologyman]

In my opinion, the way things are acting up now, I think every1 should be prepared before the next hurricane season and before hurricane preparedness week gets underway, because I'm seeing temperature rising in the Atlantic Ocean let alone across the U.S, and we might be unfortunate enough to have storm before all of this begans.
