1991 WMHB Atlantic hurricane season (Cooper)

The 1991 Atlantic hurricane season was a slightly below-average Atlantic hurricane season, with 10 named storms, 5 hurricanes, and 2 major hurricanes forming. The season officially began on June 1, 1991, and ended on November 30, 1991. These dates historically describe the period each year when most tropical cyclones form in the Atlantic basin and are adopted by convention.

Storm names
The following list of names was used for named storms that formed in the North Atlantic in 1991. The names not retired from this list were used again in the 1997 season. This was the same list used in the 1985 season, with the exceptions of Erika, Grace, and Joaquin, which replaced Elena, Gloria, and Juan, respectively, and were used for the first time this year.

Retirement
In the spring of 1992, at the 14th session of the RA IV hurricane committee, the World Meteorological Organization retired the name Bob from its rotating name lists due to the amount of deaths and damage it caused, and it will not be used again for another Atlantic hurricane.
