See the list of storm names for the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season
BATON ROUGE, La. (BRPROUD) — The official list of storm names for the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season has been released by the National Hurricane Center.
The 2024 Atlantic hurricane season officially begins on June 1. NHC goes through an alphabetical list of names attributed to the storms that reach tropical storm or hurricane status.
The list gets reused every six years, so this year’s lineup will feel familiar with just two new names added. The World Meteorological Organization only changes the list when a name is retired.
This year, the list is the same as 2018, with just two new names: Francine and Milton. They replaced Florence and Michael, which were retired after causing major damage in 2018.
