Is it wrong of me to wish very ill fortune on these storm chasing dangers who run down to other countries to get a bunch of disaster content and then leave the locals behind to deal with their destroyed towns and shattered lives? The average annual salary in Jamaica is about 1250 USD. These ghouls will make more than that off YouTube views and footage licensing. Absolutely disgusting.

It's about £500 a month. Some of the grocery prices are higher than the UK so most people grow their own.

Something that I’ve always wondered, why do they always give hurricanes, tornadoes and cyclones, huge destructive forces, a woman’s name?

Is it the same reason that they use name ships after women?

As others have said they alternate the gender of the names.

Here in Australia, they usually release the list of names of the next 8 or 10 that they expect for the cyclone season which will be upon us soon. Had TC Alfred come through earlier this year.

There's been laughs in here, granted before hand. I sincerely hope everyone in the storms way are safe and well. The death toll before landing is frightening, best wishes and good luck to all.

What do climate change deniers make if this, I wonder. Somebody phone up Trump and Farage and aak please.

Sometging like...Probably that its a land grab, linked to lack of vaccine uptake, and weather manipulation

@Tipp blue is the world's pre-eminent expert in climate science and would you believe how lucky we are that he posts on this very forum? I believe he has a YouTube degree in Climate Sciences with a PHD in random, unsubstantiated internet articles that suit his argument.

A hurricane during hurricane season what a note worthy event.
