Sometimes people ask me how hurricanes are named. The fact is they are pre-determined already. You can find the 2010 Atlantic hurricanes names here:

Here is the full list for 2010 Atlantic hurricanes:

• Alex
• Bonnie
• Colin
• Danielle
• Earl
• Fiona
• Gaston
• Hermine
• Igor
• Julia
• Karl
• Lisa
• Matthew
• Nicole
• Otto
• Paula
• Richard
• Shary
• Tomas
• Virginie
• Walter

So the first hurricane of this upcoming season will be named Alex, the second will be named Bonnie, and so and so forth.

Feel free to ask any general questions you might have about hurricanes.
