They’ve been naming them for the past several years.

The Weather Channel has been doing that for a few years now.
A major reason why I quit watching them.

It’s a Weather Channel schtick, not related to the NWS.

The Weather Channel has been embarrassing itself for several years by naming winter storms. It obviously hasn’t caught on.

That’s what happens when media coverage of a storm becomes more important than dealing with the storm itself.

The Weather Channel is, much to the consternation of the National Weather Bureaucracy. I love it. Too funny.

Maybe Obama will issue a decree banning storm-naming.

Been doing it since the “Snowmaggedon” from a few years ago, which wasn’t as big as they hoped.

And that was AFTER the record-setting season of ‘09-’10, for which they missed the boat, I guess.
