LOLOL!
Turn on the Weather Channel today and all they are talking about Winter Storm Bruce and all the trouble it's causing in the NE USA. Sorry but I did have to laugh when I heard the name. BRUCE! How appropriately named is that? all the trouble it's causing. heheh Same as RFC Bruce babyboy here....nothing to do but check posts in RFC every 10 minutes or so and respond with trolling remarks. He not only informs but he also criticizes you if you don't do his way. Even Bruce has a nice side though (I still like the fellow) but he also has a 'Richard' side. Anyway, I laughed when I saw the Weather Channel talking about storm BRUCE causing so much trouble. hahahha |

Kansas, Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska before it moves to New England. But hey, it's winter! I think it's funny they give winter (snow) storms names just like they do hurricanes. Did they always do that? Temps are in the high 60's (farenheit) today where I live. I'm getting a bit of rain. I've still got a stubborn little hummingbird hanging around. Might be the same gal who wintered here last year. I cleaned and refilled the feeder yesterday. My azealas are blooming again. They are a variety known as "twice blooming". Spring and Winter, just like clockwork. https://i.postimg.cc/VNgcdZbg/blooming.jpg Jill |

Probably >> to stoke panic and increase viewership. >> >> Cindy Hamilton > > It isn't the Weather Channel's pervue . storms are named around the > world. Typhoons are named. > Only some storms. TWC does on their own https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter..._United_States In the 2010s, winter storm naming has become controversial with The Weather Channel, and various media coming up with their own names for winter storms. It has been argued by meteorologists that winter storms can reform more than once, making the process of naming them both difficult and redundant. On the other side of the argument those in favor of naming storms argue that the names help people with preparation. Entities from the United States government which includes the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the National Weather Service (NWS) have also weighed in stating that they would not be naming winter storms, and have asked others to refrain from doing so. In November 2012, TWC began systematically naming winter storms, starting with the November 2012 nor'easter it named "Winter Storm Athena."[7] TWC compiled a list of winter storm names for the 2012€“13 winter season. It would only name those storms that are "disruptive" to people, said Bryan Norcross, a TWC senior director.[8] TWC's decision was met with criticism from other weather forecasters, who called the practice self-serving and potentially confusing to the public.[citation needed] Naming though has been used by The Weather Channel (TWC) since 2011, when the cable network informally used the previously-coined name "Snowtober" for a 2011 Halloween nor'easter.[9][10][11][12] A few of the winter storm names used by March 2013 include Athena, Brutus, Caesar, Gandolf, Khan, and Nemo.[13][14][15] For the 2013-2014 season, The Weather Channel published a list of 26 more names to be used for winter storms, with the name Atlas as the first name of the season.[16] On October 2, 2014, The Weather Channel released 25 new names with the 26th "W" to be voted on by viewers.[17] Since then, various names have been chosen by The Weather Channel for each subsequent winter season.[18][19][20] |
