90E in the eastpac - FLHurricane.com

I thought it would be fun and interesting to post the first eastpac TWO, as it contains a list of names for the season and other information. At least I think it's the first one, because I didn't check earlier today.

One of my favorite names is on the list - Emilia. I thought it was funny that someone decided you might need help figuring out how to pronouce it! (my grandmother's name was Emilie - German for Emily -- but I've always liked the Spanish/Italian variant).
