User blog:Cooper7579/The Complete List of Snubbed Atlantic Hurricanes

Hello everyone! In this blog post, I will be discussing all of the storms in the Atlantic basin that I think were snubbed from retirement. A snub is a storm that causes an extensive amount of damage and/or deaths, yet does not get retired at the end of the season it occured in. Without further ado, here is my list of snubbed storms! (Note: Not finished yet!)

Hurricane Juan (1985)
Juan was the tenth named storm and sixth hurricane of the 1985 Atlantic hurricane season. With total damages of $1.5 billion (1985 USD), Juan was the costliest storm of the 1985 season, as well as the fourth-costliest Atlantic hurricane at the time, behind only Alicia of 1983, Agnes of 1972 and Frederic of 1979. Despite the damages and obvious warrant for retirement, Juan was not retired. Now, Juan not being retired was absolutely ridiculous, considering it was the fourth-costliest Atlantic hurricane at the time. I really can't see any reason for why Juan wasn't retired. Perhaps it was due to its relatively low intensity, but Agnes was only a C1 as well and was still retired, so there's really no excuse for Juan not being retired.
