The Retirement Issue
We students-studying science-at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire are inquiring on name retirements. Gustav, Ike and Paloma are the most likely to be retired, but could, Dolly & Fay & Hanna be retired alongside these names? Consider when Hurricane Gordon swept over Florida, Haiti and Southeast United States and caused really major death tolls but was not retired. But could the same happen with Hanna?

 * Well, the only ones that are most likely to be retired are Gustav and Ike. Paloma has an outside shot, but its death toll was low, and damage wasn't that extreme. Dolly seems unlikely, due to the lack of coverage it got after it dissipate, and since many storms have caused similar levels of damage without being retired; $1 billion isn't that extreme anymore. Hanna is the likeliest, outside of Gustav and Ike, but it depends whether Haiti requests to retire it or not. We can't really do any more guesswork, so we'll have to wait until the World Meteorological Organization meetings are over. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 18:09, 15 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Isn't the WMO's metting on retiring names from April 20 to 24th? Jason Rees said the Hurricane comitee is going to be then in the 2008 AHS main talk page, under Fay's TCR. I'm not saying we should be guessing on anything here, but we shouldn't pull Gordon and Hanna together, because in 1994-95, Haiti wasn't in any mood to retire names due to political upheavals back then, and the WMO got TONS of public backlash for not retiring Gordon, so they will not make this mistake again. That's why I wanted to move this page like we did with Gustav and Ike. And more reccent canidates that were retired like Noel of '07 were requested by France, but France requested Noel because it caused great damage in Haiti, which was once a French territory, and therefore, France might even request Hanna for this reason as well. We won't be sure about any others this year, so we shouldn't really continue this discussion anymore. 76.235.202.58 (talk) 23:18, 16 April 2009 (UTC)


 * It's only a few weeks away, so I think we should just wait. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 00:11, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes the Hurricane Committee is meeting next week but it ussually takes a few weeks for either the WMO or the NHC to update their website with the retired names, so we need to wait for them to update.Jason Rees (talk) 02:18, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I get that. Last year you said the mettings were from April 23-28, Jason, but I said that the names weren't retired until May 13th. But is there going to be a report of damage in Haiti next week during the meeting? Hanna struck more than 8 months ago and not one report of damage in Haiti is here. Even Noel of 2007 got a report of damge in Haiti and Cuba sooner, and I don't know what's taking Hanna so long. You're saying the WMO will announce which names will/will not be retired next week, but it will take some time for word to get out, right? 76.235.202.58 (talk) 00:48, 18 April 2009 (UTC)


 * There should be a Country report from Haiti about damage etc but its not been put up yet on the WMO Website. Jason Rees (talk) 01:28, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

NHC site has been update - NOT retired. Good call on keeping (2008) in the name. It should have been retired, I agree, but not totally surprising since Haiti has a poor record on names. CrazyC83 (talk) 13:52, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Not retired probably due to the low damage, damage and death should be balanced. HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 00:54, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Hurricane Hanna (2008) → Hurricane Hanna – Only storm named Hanna to become a hurricane N-C16 (talk) 03:01, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - Since this seems to be the new naming convention, I support this. I also believe that notability for this storm is greater than any other Hanna. Jdcomix (talk) 11:29, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
