Beryl, Helene, Milton. Those were the three names retired from the North Atlantic in 2024.

Fun fact on #27*: This name as of 2024 is retired in both the North Atlantic AND EPAC.

* — Currently #26, but since one of the names retired from 2024 slots in at #8, this name is now #27.

Throw in the EPAC (eastern north pacific) and I’ll be back on top, lol

Anyone who’s wondering how I got so many more than the second-highest score: No, I didn’t cheat. This quiz is right up my alley! This is one of my biggest interests, the weather.

I expect Fiona and Ian to join this list in April next year, too.
