Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki
Hurricane Idol Summer/Fall 2022 (XX)
Season 21 of Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki's Hurricane Idol began on September 20, 2022.

How does Hurricane Idol work?

In Hurricane Idol, names that have or will be used to name hurricanes are put into a contest based on what the judges and the other users of Hypothetical Hurricanes Wiki decide. However, since Season 9, names that have not been used to name tropical cyclones have been submitted. Once the contest is complete, the last name that stands out will be crowned the winner of the contest and the most popular hurricane name of the year.

  • Blocked users will have their names disqualified, but will be able to participate in future seasons if the user is unblocked. If you are blocked while the name submissions are ongoing, the user will be automatically eliminated and their names disqualified.
  • Users must compete in one account only. If you try to participate in Hurricane Idol with alternate accounts or sockpuppets, you will get your names disqualified, and you may be removed from your position if you are a designer, moderator, judge, head judge, co-host, or host. You may also be excluded from participating in future seasons of Hurricane Idol.
  • The name submissions period will start on September 13 and end on September 20. The names can be submitted on this page's comment section or on the official Hurricane Idol Discord server. Names submitted after this date will not be accepted.

Message from the Host

A big thank you goes out to those who participated in this twenty-first season of Hurricane Idol. I hope you all enjoyed it, and I hope that I fulfilled all of your needs as host. As my first time hosting HI, I think things flowed fairly smoothly and I thank all of you for cooperating with me. I would like to thank all of the designers (Sria, Atlas, Oil, Basti, and FCX) for your wonderful banners along the way and for essentially an equal amount of banners between the five of you. I would also like to thank the moderators in the Discord server (Solaris and Sandy) for your hard work in keeping the server stable (even though there were not really any issues). Of course, a huge thanks goes out to all of the judges (Dwight, Fabian, JNLT, Lucarius, and head judge Alex) for keeping on track with the schedule and swiftly judging the names. And last but not least, the biggest thanks of all goes to SM, my co-host, who did a tremendous amount of work in helping me keep this season running.


I send a huge congratulations to Lucarius for winning this season's Hurricane Idol (and I think it's your third victory in the last four seasons!). We had a non-Atlantic and Eastern Pacific name win this season for only the second time ever, which is quite interesting. I would also like to congratulate Joel for coming in second place, (and me for having a second consecutive third place finish). Once again, I hope that this season was a lot of fun for you, and I hope there will be many more! Hosting was a blast for me, and I would be honored to do it again in the future. As for Season 22 (wow), we will be kicking it off in March, and I will set up host applications sometime in February. Until then, this is your S21 host, signing off. -- Lucas :) | (Talk | Contribs) | 19:54 November 21, 2022 (UTC)
