Informal betting on strangest storm (Bud)[]
I couldn't resist. What storm do you think will shred the rules of climatoligy the most? Please tell why, it makes it more fun.
This section is just for fun. There will likely be no winner. Because of this, please do not cross out the names as they form. Also, please do not bet on a storm that has already formed. ; )
- Aletta - Hits Central America as a cat 5. Ryan1000 04:18, July 1, 2011 (UTC)
- Bud - WINNER!! Hits Mexico as a TC.-- 20:45, January 3, 2012 (UTC)
- Carlotta - Carlotta will form in Honolulu, Hawaii, will turn east and will attain Category 5 status. Carlotta will also form a MASSIVE, I mean a MASSIVE eye in the shape of a smiley face and will hit Mexico's Acapulco, California and will cross to the Atlantic, then go to Europe, then go to the Middle East and carry her way all the way to China. Will form in mid June and dissipate in January 2013. Carlotta will also be in the shape of a square. Raraahahahromaromamagagaoohlala May 7, 2012, 21:10 (UTC)

- Fabio -
- Gilma -
- Hector - Forms off the coast of Central America, travels west, becoming a hurricane at the Epac/Cpac boundary, strikes Honolulu as a Category 3, keeps going, directly hitting every Hawaiian island at Category 4 force, then rapidly becomes a Category 5 just after crossing into the WPac. Then, when Japan is about to see Hector's rage, he suddenly turns away, and cool waters turn him from a 5 to a 1. Then, at TD force, he hits Anchorage directly, and becomes "Nor' Hector".

Apparently we didn't specify the second section in this enough; it was suposed to be 101-200 deaths, but I guess we'll have to leave winners in both sections, since there was less than 200 and less than 100 deaths at the same time. (Ryan1000)
