Interesting point about naming hurricanes. Perhaps we should formally name floods. The floods here in Pittsburgh are usually the remnants of hurricanes coming north and so do inherit those names. And those ones are perceived differently than when there's just a big snow melt-off. But a flood is a flood. They happen and they are getting worse. We've had five "hundred year floods" here in the last year.
