Ernesto was an Atlantic storm. John was Pacific. Separate sets of names are used.

Obviously -- you have not accessed the NOAA website

- Ernesto is in the Atlantic/Caribbean Basin

and John -- it is a Pacific Storm.

The first answer is correct. However, note that hurricane name-skipping can occur even if both are on the same coast, since it is standard practice to name disturbances when they reach tropical storm strength, and many tropical storms never reach hurricane status.

See... you should pay more ATTENTION.

Ernesto is an ATLANTIC hurricane.

John is a PACIFIC hurricane.

Ioke is an Western Pacific hurricane (which they call Typhoons).
