Tropical Storm Kate

The name Kate has been used for two tropical cyclones in the Atlantic Ocean, ten tropical cyclones in the western Pacific, and at least one in the Southern Hemisphere.

The name is used on the modern six-year lists in the Atlantic:
* 1985's Hurricane Kate - late-season storm that grazed Cuba and directly struck Panama City, Florida, causing $210 million in damages and killing six in the U.S., and further damage in Cuba.
* (not used in 1991 and 1997)
* 2003's Hurricane Kate - took unusual path across Atlantic, brushed Newfoundland with minimal damage.

The name was also on some of the old typhoon name lists, which were also used for hurricanes in the central Pacific:
* 1951's Typhoon Kate - affected Japan.
* 1955's Super Typhoon Kate
* 1959's Tropical Storm Kate
* 1962's Typhoon Kate

The name is on the current naming list in Brisbane's Area of Responsibility in the south Pacific:
