The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season begins on June 1.
In the 1950s, weather officials started giving storms short, distinctive names to avoid confusion and streamline communications, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
NOAA said the National Hurricane Center does not decide the names of tropical storms; it's based on a strict procedure that was established by the World Meteorological Organization.
NOAA uses a list of male and female names which are used on a six-year rotation for Atlantic hurricanes.
Here is the list of names for the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season:
- Alberto
- Beryl
- Chris
- Debby
- Ernesto
- Francine
- Gordon
- Helene
- Isaac
- Joyce
- Kirk
- Leslie
- Milton
- Nadine
