What is a hurricane?
Categorizing and Naming
Hurricanes are named by World Meteorological Organization, which uses different sets of names that depend on what part of the world you are in and how bad the hurricane was. In 1950-1952, tropical cyclones only in the North Atlantic Ocean were named by the phonetic alphabet. They only used to name the hurricanes after girls,(women), until the year of 1979 when they decided to start using boy,(men), names. If a hurricane was REALLY bad, they won;t use that name again.
