Storm names are determined by a list of selected names used by the weather serivce, and are issued alphabetically in order of the storms appearance. the first storm of the year gets a name that stars with the letter A. the second gets a B name and so forth.
a named storm is a storm that has a name.
The 2005 season had 27 named tropical storm plus an unnamed subtropical storm. Second place goes to 1931, with 21 tropical storms, but this was before storms were named.
Hurricanes and storms have often been named after Saints, such as San Felipe. To get a tropical storm named after them, one would have to contact the Tropical Prediction Center in Miami, Florida, who are the organization who name storms.
There were several tropical storms named Eric, but none reached hurricane strength.
Hurricanes and tropical storms are both named. Hurricanes have more detailed and already thought of names, while tropical storms aren't as important.
Hurricanes are named by using the letters of the alphabet. Names are chosen in alphabetical order, alternating in gender for each storm. 21 letters of the alphabet are used in each year's list and Q, U, X,Y and Z are skipped. If the number of named storms exceeds 21 then the NHC uses letters of the Greek alphabet (alpha, beta, gamma...) This has only happened once: in the 2005 hurricane season which had 27 named storms all the way up to tropical storm Zeta. At the beginning of the new year the names list is reset back to an "A" name.
Only tropical storms and hurricanes are named.

Which year are you talking about. There are several storms named Earl.
i think they might of had lots of storms there or near there, but they might of had a girl that lived in a place there so they might of named it after her.
No. There have only been three hurricanes or tropical storms with names starting with R: Roxanne, Rita, and Richard. Hurricanes are named in alphabetical order and it is rare for there to be enough storms to get to R.
