WEATHER TRIVIA QUESTION..

HOW MANY YEARS does it take for a hurricane name to be "repeated" , assuming the name is NOT retired? 

Like Baseball players, hurricane names are retired when they cause enough damage. However, if they are not, they are recycled every six years. The names are picked by the world meteorological organization, whose web page you can find on worldweathernow.com in the sidebar.
