Winter Storm Heather sure does get around

It's damn cold in the B'ham metro area today. Even colder tomorrow. My southern boy blood is frozen. Good thing is, I never lost power at the crib, so enjoying a day off next to the fireplace rewatching that Dallas beatdown from Sunday!!!! Fuck Dallas
 
If you were from the 80's you'd know how Heathers can be.

Starting to think she's a slut

Maybe she is, but speaking of dumb shit weather people do, naming winter storms has to be up there at the top of the list.

Seriously, since when are winter storms in the same category (please just overlook that pun, I'm too lazy to think of a synonym for "category" to avoid it) as Hurricanes?

And while we're at it, if they're going to be idiotic enough to name winter storms, couldn't they come up with something a little more formidable sounding than ... Heather?

The National Weather Service does not name winter storms, nor do they recognize naming them.

Naming winter storms was started by The Weather Channel for the drama.

I'll be dead in the cold, cold ground before I recognize the Weather Channel's winter storm naming convention.

I never stopped to wonder whence the naming came, but it's actually good to learn the National Weather Service doesn't participate in that nonsense.

The Weather Channel started doing it in 2012.

Being television they're entertainment oriented for ratings. Therefore they have to play the drama side of a weather event using personalities like Jim Cantore.
