It's June 1, which substance the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is upon us. This year, Americans are likely to face an above-normal number of storms, with up to 10 of them expected to be hurricanes, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Forecasters say there is a 60 per cent chance of 13 to 19 named storms that could wreak havoc. The World Meteorological Organization is responsible for naming hurricanes. “Assigning names to tropical cyclones makes tracking and discussing specific storms more straightforward, especially when multiple storms are active simultaneously,” the agency says on its website.

The list rotates every six years, with a name retiring if it has been used for a deadly storm. This year's new name is Dexter, which replaced Dorian, a catastrophic hurricane that struck the Bahamas in 2019. The list of 2025 hurricane season storm names is as follows:
If there are more than 21 storms in a season, names would be used from an alternate list approved by the WMO. Last year, there were 7 named tropical storms: Alberto, Chris, Gordon, Joyce, Nadine, Patty, and Sara, and 11 named hurricanes: Beryl, Debby, Ernesto, Francine, Helene, Isaac, Kirk, Leslie, Milton, Oscar, and Rafael.
