Is it a coincidence that the female named storms are ‘bigger and badder’ storms than the male named ones, or do they do that on purpose?

Dudley was a fairly bad one last night but he was only a yellow warning, whereas Eunice is on the way and she’s an amber warning.

If it had been the end of month, it would have been a red warning!

I can't understand why they give the storms such tame names, Eunice and Dudley aren't going to scare anyone. They should be called Adolf, Shipman, Pol Pot or such like.

Agreed...although I would go for the more dramatic...'Widowmaker' ..'greenhousefucker''...etc...or the more exotic ' Flatulence Del Diablo''

I always imagine tragic meteorological geeks give them girls names and wank off over them.
