World Meteorological Organization: Stop naming tropical storms after people. Assign a number instead.


World Meteorological Organization: Stop naming tropical storms after people. Assign a number instead.
The Issue
These storms cause death, and wreak havoc on innocent people leaving a path of destruction and devastation in it's wake. People should not have their name associated with such a horrible memory. It's time to change it to a number system for the day the storm forms and occurs. Ex: Sandy would be called Hurricane 1029.
