I am damp and grumpy
Let me spare you the suspense: the weather here looks like that forever.
On Thursday, for variety, we’re getting the remnants of Storm Ciarán. High wind and heavy rain. This comes on the heels of Storm Babet (pdf file).
Yes, odd storm names. They’ve only been naming storms for not quite ten years here. Another infernal Yankee impertinence. Our storm names are decided jointly between the Irish, the British and the Dutch, so you’d expect some loo-loos.
Note that if we make it all the way to T, we get Storm Tamiko. I guess she immigrated.
Americans have been naming storms since the 50s. If you want a preview of what you’ve got to look forward to, here you go.
Sadly for Sheila Jackson Lee, I do not see “Keisha, Jamal and Deshawn.”
