I have enough trouble keeping track of the summer ones, and now the winter ones that aren’t even shaped like anything are being given names? I have to wonder whose bright idea that was, or maybe who was trying to impress the boss by naming a storm after him. Was this necessary? Was this crying out to be done?
Please help me because I am suffering from free-floating anger at needless bureaucratic mummery.

What Is Up With The Naming Of Winter Storms Now?
Posted on December 29, 2012.
The naming of winter storms is not official and is not affiliated with NOAA/National Weather Service/National Hurricane Center.
The naming is from The Weather Channel. I have no clue as to why they are naming winter storms. Either to help the public keep track of them or to get more viewers/ratings.
?? They always name the storms in alphabetical order and give them male and female names. “Michael, Michelle, Nathan, Nancy”… its supposed help the scientists some how.
it is being done by The Weather Channel only and is being ignored by just about everyone else
