Weather: Tropical Aggression
Much to our relief, the Islands dodged a hurricane in August. But we weren’t as worried about the high winds as we were a potentially battered reputation. How embarrassing would it be to be pummeled by a Flossie? We think the National Weather Service should stick to aggro monikers like these:
Lothar
|
Molly Hatchet
|
Spike
|
Maximus
|
Dirty Harry
|
Ku
|
Stormy
|
Stormington
|
Charles Bronson
|
Vladimir
|
Thor
|
Typhoon Mary
|
Hopefully, we’ll also avoid getting whupped by Raymond, Velma or Wallis, all names on deck for the remainder of the 2007 hurricane season.
