We have a mild warm front moving through. I’m calling it Don.

The next storm is called Christy and blows in all directions.

“Since when to winter storms have names? Stupid!”

That’s my question too and I have a legitimate concern. My house insurance deductible goes up to 2% of the total damage from any NAMED storm.

My main concern is named hurricanes. We just got through Sandy on the MA SouthCoast.

Now we have a routine nor’easter blowing through and somebody gave it a name. If I get any damage, my deductible goes up.

So, who is naming these routine storms? NOAA?

Anybody know the answer to this?

I think it's part of the government's climate scare plan so they'll get away with massive increases in regulations and taxes.

Post #15 also brings up an interesting possibility.
