Nemo Winter Storm
9 Feb
Curious why the Weather Channel started naming winter storms? Their explanation:
During the upcoming 2012-13 winter season The Weather Channel will name noteworthy winter storms. Our goal is to better communicate the threat and the timing of the significant impacts that accompany these events. The fact is, a storm with a name is easier to follow, which will mean fewer surprises and more preparation…
This is an ambitious project. However, the benefits will be significant. Naming winter storms will raise the awareness of the public, which will lead to more pro-active efforts to plan ahead, resulting in less impact and inconvenience overall…
Finally, it might even be fun and entertaining and that in itself should breed interest from our viewing public and our digital users.
Coming soon from the Weather Channel – sponsored storms! Hurricane Doritos is bearing down on the Northeast! Winter Storm Comcast is on the move!
