'SANDY' Retired
#94270 - Fri Apr 12 2013 12:39 PM

From NOAA:

'Sandy has been retired from the official list of Atlantic Basin tropical cyclone names by the World Meteorological Organizationâ€™s hurricane committee because of the extreme impacts it caused from Jamaica and Cuba to the Mid-Atlantic United States in October 2012.

Storm names are reused every six years for both the Atlantic and eastern North Pacific basins. If a storm is so deadly or costly that the future use of the name would be insensitive or confusing, the WMO hurricane committee, which includes personnel from NOAAâ€™s National Hurricane Center, may retire the name. Sandy is the 77th name to be retired from the Atlantic list since 1954. The name will be replaced with â€œSaraâ€ beginning in 2018.'
