Hey there, weather enthusiasts! Ever wondered why FOX 11 gives those chilly winter storms a name? Is it because:
They want to make the storms easier to remember, just like your favorite TV show characters?
They want to signify a storm that impacts most of the area significantly, like when Kai's science project blew everyone away?
They highlight storms that last more than 24 hours, kind of like Aiden's epic gaming marathons?
