Which 2024 tropical cyclone names will be used for hurricanes? That is, many or all of these names will be used for tropical cyclones, which of those will become hurricanes?

This is specifically about the northern Atlantic hurricane season.

Sara never became a hurricane,

@Gabrielle
Patty never became a hurricane,
Rafael has just become a hurricane https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCUAT3+shtml/060021.shtml
so these can resolve.

bought Ṁ500 Nadine NO
bought Ṁ500 Oscar YES

Hurricane Oscar popped up like a Spirit Halloween store.

After Nadine dissipates over southern Mexico, its remnants are 
expected to move into the eastern Pacific.  The combination of the 
remnants of Nadine and influences from the Gulf of Tehuantepec gap 
wind event are forecast to result in formation of a new low pressure 
system off the coast of southwestern Mexico in a couple of days.  
Additional development is expected after that time, and a tropical 
depression is likely to form during the early to middle part of next 
week while the system moves westward at about 15 mph away from the 
coast of Mexico.

If Nadine gets renamed in Pacific and intensifies to hurricane does Nadine resolve no?
What if not renamed in Pacific and intensifies to hurricane?

D'oh sorry should read answer commented 2 hours ago.

@ChristopherRandles I give it 15% chance of the remnants becoming a hurricane from EPS/00Z, but since NHC is predicting it will be renamed as such its even less.

I'm not worrying and even bet it down as such.

@ChristopherRandles Just to confirm, the name is the critical part for this market. If there is a Hurricane Nadine in the 2024 season, even if it’s located in the Pacific, that option will resolve YES, but “Hurricane X, made from the remnants of TS Nadine” will resolve NO.

bought Ṁ5 Nadine YES

@ChristopherRandles

I have to revise what I said earlier: based on EPS/00Z ensemble alone, I think its remnants have >80% now of helping fuel the next hurricane in the EP. Only 6% of its members have continuity into the EP though.

The 5AM NHC discussion seems to give good reason it will lose its tropical cyclone status though:

The depression is moving toward the west-southwest, or 255/12 kt.  
The forecast shows the system accelerating slightly and bending a 
bit more toward the southwest this morning.  This motion would bring 
Nadine toward terrain of about 8,000 to 9,000 ft above sea level in 
about 6 hours.  Terrain of that height is likely to break apart 
Nadine's low-level circulation, which should cause the cyclone to 
dissipate later this morning.  A remnant low position is provided 
at 12 hours for continuity, but Nadine will likely have dissipated 
by that time. 

Anyone know the rules for a storm crossing over to the Pacific and keeping its name?

@ScottSupak I have no idea about the rules for tropical storms in general, but this specific market is able to resolve YES if the storm continues over to the Pacific, keeps its name, and becomes a hurricane named that.

@Gabrielle From what I can tell, if it keeps a certain amount of circulation it will be considered the same storm and will keep the name, but I have no idea what their criteria are for determining that.

@ScottSupak

I forgot to check but the TWO for the EP describes the situation succinctly, and forecasts it explicitly as a new system:

South of Southwestern Mexico:

After Nadine dissipates over southern Mexico, its remnants are

expected to move into the eastern Pacific by late today. The

combination of the remnants of Nadine and influences from a Gulf of

Tehuantepec gap wind event are forecast to result in the formation

of a new low pressure system off the coast of southern Mexico in a

day or so. Additional development is expected after that time, and

a tropical depression is expected to form during the early to middle

part of this week while the system moves westward at about 15 mph

away from the coast of Mexico.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...60 percent.

* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

bought Ṁ623 Kirk YES

Looks like we have Hurricane Kirk
https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/storminfo/#11L

@ChristopherRandles I usually wait until the NHC's website states it as a hurricane, but in this case it seems certain enough that I'll resolve it now.

sold Ṁ165 Gordon NO

On one hand I still have doubts if 07L will even become Gordon despite NHC forecasts of a TS, on the other 40% of EPS members shows a CAT 1 .... 😖

bought Ṁ150 Rafael NO

Chris can resolve no

bought Ṁ60 Chris YES

Getting in on early for Chris assuming Invest96L assumes its name and not Invest94L or some other future storm, NHC predicting genesis at 70%. Also, GFS/00Z from this morning showing it reaching 80kt on July 4/06Z.

bought Ṁ50 Beryl NO

Love the idea! Will you be paying these out as they finish, like Alberto just did?

Yep, and I just did for Alberto! Anyone should feel free to remind me to resolve them, I might miss some.

NOAA’s forecast for this season calls for 17-25 named storms, 8-13 hurricanes, and 4-7 major hurricanes.
