Maryland, Governor Marvin Mandel placed 10 of the state's 23 counties under a state of emergency. Following the severe damage caused by Hurricane Eloise, its name was retired at the end of the 1975 season and will never again be used for an Atlantic hurricane. However, Eloise was not replaced by any particular name due to the addition of male names into the lists in 1979.
