WHY DO THEY GIVE HURRICANES NAMES??

Charley hit Florida last year. Andrew hit in 1992. Hugo in 1989. Maybe they were transgendered hurricanes?

I thought every 5 year old was taught how they names Hurricanes...they alternate between boy and girl names.

So Hurricane A is a boy, Burricane B is a Girls, Hurricane C is a Boy etc,etc.

This very well might have been sarcasm in which case ignore post above.

I can't wait, next year Hurricane Tony is up, if it gets that far. (Which if it's like this year, it will).

When they run out of names, ie after Hurricane Z____, they are Hurricane Alpha, Hurricane Beta, and so on with the Greek alphabet.

Because when they arrive, they're wet and wild, but when they go, they take your house and car.

And sometimes they get you all hot and bothered in anticipation only to turn into a complete bluff.

They were originally named after the Saint's day they hit on.
