It was a super storm?
Tao: They (the weather channel) decided to name winter storms similarly to how they name non-winter storms to raise awareness.

www.weather.com/news/why-we-name···20121001I guess I don't see a problem with it.
I just wish they would give the storms names like:
"Snowpocolypse Deux"
"Thor's Hammer of snow"
"DeathSnow IV"
"Snowmagedden VII the end of clear streets"
That would raise awareness even more.
I also like "Class III Killstorm"
