I am so glad I just found this topic only a few hours after hearing WC say it has to be named.
Where do they get off naming these storms? I know, they want the hype they can get for real storms that actually cause widespread direct and permanent damage. Hurricanes can do that much; blizzards generally just inconvenience.
Cut the nonsense and stop naming everything.
Anybody taking bets on who will be the first to declare a disaster so they can get themselves some federal cookies?
