2010 retired hurricanes

[Ad Novoxium]

Since the 1959 season...Escuminac?

Also, I think Karl's chances may have taken a hit of some sort because of the damage report.

What the Hell did Mexico say to blow this storm's chance of retirement?

That's correct - Escuminac killed 35 in Canada.

That was a nickname for an unnamed 1959 hurricane there. Escuminac was the town hardest hit.

Personally I find it hard to swallow that Igor and Earl make this the worst season in Canada since 1959. Did they completely forget about Hurricane Juan in 2003?

Yea, but Igor caused almost as much monetary damage as Juan did, and 2003 didn't have any other hurricane landfalls. In fact, 2010 was the last year since 1969 (as far as I could find) in which two hurricanes hit Canada (which was barely true then, as Gerda hit Maine, and Debbie did the same thing as Igor by passing just SE of Newfoundland).

It's actually the discrepancy between the estimates from the Mexican government and the final report. It's not actually the first time such a discrepancy existed between a storm's reports and the final report for the storm: 1998's Tropical Storm Javier in the East Pacific was initially reported to have had a high death toll and damage total (it was similar to Agatha from this year, but the death toll was slightly lower, yet some reports from the time said it was possible Javier had a 1000+ death toll) but the overall report didn't mention this. Javier wasn't retired after the season.

And technically, high damage doesn't automatically retire a storm: Juan in 85 was a billion-dollar storm and it somehow evaded retirement (it hit Louisiana and did a similar direct death toll to Karl).

When will they say?

If none are retired, will they say that? Or will there just be no statement?

[Macrocane]

The countries of the RA IV Hurricane Committee will have a meeting in the 2nd week of March, in that meeting they retire and replace the names so we will know wich ones were retired after that meeting.

Whenever the WMO or whatever it's called gets together and decides. I think it's sometime in March or April.

If Karl isn't retired, I'd be kinda baffled. Maybe they just can't think of another male K name.

I would pay a lot of money to get Kruschev on the 2016 list. They can't retire Igor though as $200M isn't a whole lot of money even by Canadian standards and also, there are literally no "I" names left.

It's a lot for Newfoundland. There are only 450,000 people on the island. Proportionally, that would be $8.3 billion in Florida.

Wow, I hadn't thought of it that way. Okay, goodbye Igor....make room for Ichabod!

[HurricaneRyan]

Ian needs to be next in line. it sounds NOTHING like Ivan so the people saying that are practically smoking crack.

There ARE K names left.

-Kurt
-Kellan
-Korey
-Konrad
-Krishan
-Kory
-Kullen

[Metalicwx220]

It depends on how you pronounce ian. They think its eye-AN when its e-IN or IN. it spelt like ivan just without the v.
