Hurricane Katrina - Retirement of The Name Katrina

Time: Thursday Apr 6, 2006

Place: Geneva, Switzerland

Details: Because of the large death toll and destruction of property along the Gulf Coast, the name Katrina was officially retired on April 6, 2006, by the World Meteorological Organization at the request of the U.S. government. The name will never again be used for another North Atlantic hurricane. It was replaced by Katia on List III of the Atlantic hurricane naming lists, which was used in the 2011 Atlantic hurricane season.
