keep in mind with jos and alpha that only one storm name has been retired without the storm reaching hurricane strength tropical storm allison in it caused over deaths in the houston area although i am sure jeanne would have joined allison had it not reach hurricane strenght due to what it did as a tropical storm i also highly doubt ophelia will be retired and am not so sure that it merits its own article but these are things we can take care of in the off season if there is one and we have more time for cleanup
