Tropical Storm Hazel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The name Hazel has been used for two tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean, three in the eastern Pacific Ocean, one in the western Pacific, and one in the Indian Ocean. It was used in all basins before formal naming systems were instituted. It has not been used since the six-year lists began; the name will never again be used in the Atlantic or East Pacific as it was retired in both basins.
