2019 Hypothetical Mediterranean Hurricane Season (FrigidusMedicane)

The 2019 Mediterranean Hurricane Season was the first season that featured an organized list of male and female names. The Season has no official bounds but most of the tropical cyclones tend to form between August and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Mediterranean Sea and in the Black Sea. The season, for the basin standards, was extremely hyperactive and catastrophic with the formation of 13 tropical storms, 11 of which developed into hurricanes; three of the hurricanes attained major hurricane status, or a Category 3 or greater on the Saffir-Simpson scale, making the season the most active in the Mediterranean Basin until it was surpassed by the 2021 Mediterranean Hurricane season.

The strongest and deadliest storm of the season was Hurricane Hux, which impacted and devastated the Balearic Islands, killing thousands of people and becoming one of the deadliest natural disasters in modern European history. Hurricanes Irina and Joseph reached major hurricane status in open waters causing minimal effects to land areas. Three of the season's storms formed into the Black Sea: Boris, Gilma and Lucas, each causing minimal damages to Ukraine and Russia. Italy and France were also heavily impacted by several tropical cyclones, especially Hurricane Hux.

Storm names
The following list of names was used for named storms that formed in the Mediterranean and Black sea in 2019. The names not retired from this list will be used again in the 2022 season.

Retirement
On March 20, 2020, at the 1st session of the RA IV Mediterranean hurricane committee, the World Meteorological Organization retired the name Hux from its rotating naming lists due to the number of deaths and amount of damage that the storm caused, and the name will never be used again for another Mediterranean hurricane. Hux was replaced by Hector for the 2022 season.
