isohume Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 NHC should one up them and name it a STS just to mess with them, science be dam*ed That's actually pretty irresponsible on TWC's part naming this storm so close to last week's tropical system. Folks in the affected area may think it's going to be another storm similar in character and magnitude as Sandy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folks in the affected area may think it's going to be another storm similar in character and magnitude as Sandy. That's the goal it would seem.

Eskimo Joe Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 If this were late November / early December I believe this would have been a higher impact storms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
