They can't retire a letter of an alphabet.


Two things I heard. If we do get to the Greek Alphabet, the names will be:

Hurricane Alpha '05
Hurricane Beta '05
Hurricane Gamma '05

ECT ECT...to where they COULD be retired for that year

Also, if they just have the names, and no '05's...then they will just remove that name from the Greek Alphabet list.

I agree, Tammy could be an October player. Still, Rita sticks out more to me, but I'm leary about Tammy as well.
