List of storms named Katrina

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The name Katrina has been used for three tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean, three tropical cyclones in the Eastern Pacific Ocean and one tropical cyclone in the South Pacific. It was used in the Pacific on the old four-year lists. The name was retired in the North Atlantic after 2005, and was replaced by Katia for the 2011 season.
