Anyone else who are totally sick of any strong winds and rain having names on them. Something we have all witnessed from birth, but is it something thought up to fool people to think they are worse now. Hardly bloody typhoons that got named. Surely long periods of sunshine and lack of rain will be named next with the usual danger to life getting spouted out.

Best ignore them unless they are named Gertrude, I've heard her quoted on here a few times as the creator of a canny storm or two.

Probably the brainchild of some climate change nutter….give them names and the mugs will think they’re really bad…….surprise they haven’t them names like…

Psycho Death Head Ripper…..or ….Blood Red Destruction…or … Carnage Guaranteed..you get the idea.

Then there’s all those violently coloured patterns on the weather forecast to make you more anxious if you are anxious. :lol:

All wind, direction unknown, constantly changing direction.
