Greek hurricanes?

[matgb]

Decided to read a full thread on metaquotes, which is unusual. Glad I did.
Name the hurricanes after the gods! That's a link to the funny thread, which I only opened as it looked vaguely good...

I'm all for going with the classics!

"Tropical Depression Orpheus has turned back in its path and is now dissipating, but Hurricane Oedipus is still headed for the coast and looks like it's gonna be one motherf$#er of a storm!"

Dunno if it got said anywhere or not, but the American Hurricane Assocation (or whatever) said that if they need to, they'll start to use the Greek Alphabet - Hurricane Alpha, Beta, Gamma etc. etc.

It's never happened before though.
