The storm names for 2018/19 have been announced and once again it is a mixed bag!

The Met Office started naming storms a few years ago to make it easier for the public to keep track of them. The aim is that we will all be more prepared if we pay more attention to wild weather.

Here are the names that made the cut this year:

  • A Ali

  • B Bronagh

  • C Callum

  • D Deirdre

  • E Erik

  • F Freya

  • N Niamh

  • O Oliver

  • P Peggy

  • R Ross

  • S Saoirse

  • T Tristan

  • W Wyn

So, why are there no storms for Q,U, Y, X and Z? Well....

So sorry to the Quentins, Ursulas and Zebedees of the world!
