Tropical storms and hurricanes are major hazards in North and Central America and the Caribbean. Improved forecasts and emergency preparedness have reduced loss of life but more can be done. WMO’s Hurricane Committee seeks to ensure that everyone has access to early warnings about life-threatening winds, rain and flooding – a core component of the Early Warnings for All Initiative. It also oversees the list of hurricane names, which is used to communicate about the danger.
