Why is that? Remember， there can be more than one hurricane operating at one time. Without naming them， we could get confused about which storm were talking about. 3 For hundreds of years， hurricanes in the Caribbean were named after the particular religious day on which they occurred. One Australian meteorologist (气象学家) began giving womens names to tropical storms at the end of the 19th century. In 1953， the US National Weather Service， which is responsible for tracking hurricanes and issuing warnings， began using female names for storms. By i979， both women and mens names were being used. One name for each letter of the alphabet (字母表) is selected， except for Q， U and Z. |
