World Meteorological Organization's #HurricaneCommittee retires #Fiona and #Ian from the list of rotating names because of the death and destruction they caused in 2022.
They will be replaced by #Farrah and #Idris in 2028.

#Ian and #Fiona have both been retired and will never again be used on the list of hurricane season names.
Former @NHC_Atlantic Director @DrRickKnabb explains the decision:
The colonial oversight board of #PuertoRico, now that the privatization of the power grid's profit is contractually fixed for 15 years, has resolved to pay down the debt by charging the public a debt-service fee of $13 a month plus 3 cents a kWh - on top of what is already one of the most expensive power bills in the United States.
#FueraLUMA, except Pierluisi has made sure that LUMA is a permanent fixture now after their *stellar* work during #Fiona.
Today's the end of an Atlantic #hurricane season that was tamer than expected and horrific all at once https://wapo.st/3VDHAoR #ian #fiona #nicole #flwx #uswx #puertorico #novascotia

News from #PuertoRico a month and a half after #Fiona:
"Despite some improvements since past disasters, Elvia Meléndez-Ackerman, professor of environmental sciences at the University of Puerto Rico, said low-income, rural and minority communities in Puerto Rico are once again being left behind in crisis response, leading many to leave Puerto Rico altogether."

This adventure is overshadowed with pervasive climate peril. "Everywhere we went, everyone talked about climate change. A new, permanent, subconscious anxiety has infected everyone."
