Surely you can watch Fox News Channel, CBS Evening News on Sky News, ABC World News Tonight on BBC News 24, NBC Nightly News on CNBC, as well as ITV's NBC's footage.
I remember that when the previous hurricane that hit Florida, it got a lot of coverage, particularly on CBS. I'll check the CBS Morning News, the Early show, the NBC Today show, and CNN USA if you really want tomorrow.

Yes - then:
Franklin, Gert, Harvey, Irene, Jose, Katrina, Lee, Maria, Nate, Ophelia, Philippe, Rita, Stan, Tammy and Vince.
Franklin has been introduced when Floyd was 'retired' after the hurricane became so memorable and destructive. The four names of the hurricanes that battered Florida last year (Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne) within six weeks of each other have also been retired. They've been replaced with Colin, Fiona, Igor and Julia.

Isn't the next hurricane after Dennis going to be called Emily?

From the National Hurricane Center's website:
We're talking something on the scale of Hurricane Mitch (1998) or Hurricane Camille (1969) here. Just checked other hurricane sites, and last year, although Earl was destructive, it only reached Tropical Storm Strength (average wind speeds of up to 74 MPH), and was destructive over a comparatively small area.

Earl was destructive last year as well.
From the National Hurricane Center's website:
Quote:
The only time that there is a change in the list is if a storm is so deadly or costly that the future use of its name on a different storm would be inappropriate for reasons of sensitivity. If that occurs, then at an annual meeting by the WMO committee (called primarily to discuss many other issues) the offending name is stricken from the list and another name is selected to replace it.

Remember Iris in September 1995. The effects of that hurricane were felt in Britain.
