the best idea I've heard so far this year

[calimac]

Stop using generic first names for hurricanes. Is it fair that every woman named Katrina should ever after bear a black mark against her name?

Instead, name hurricanes for prominent climate change deniers. Wouldn't it be more appropriate if the fearsome and dangerous thing bearing down on an American city were named Marco Rubio or Michele Bachmann?

Perhaps we could use first names for extended spells of clement weather: Sunny Spell Steve, for example.

The name Hurricane David was retired in 1979. I'd just as soon forget climate change deniers as soon as possible, and not be reminded of them every 6 years.
I had a friend named "Hazel" who was proud of sharing a name with a major hurricane.
