Informal betting on strangest storm
What storm do you think will shred the rules of climatology the most? Please tell why, it makes it more fun. And let your imagination run wild!

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. Also, please bet on ONLY ONE STORM NAME !!!

 * Gabrielle - First major hurricane to hit NYC in 192 years (1821) Ryan1000 15:28, September 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * Humberto - Shroomberto (OMG SHROOOMS!!!!) forms in Sweden does snow instead of rain in christmas, goes to russia gets cat 5 landfall with his Norwegian sister Ingrid and gets retired. First Swedish-Russian major hurricane ever with a Hispanic name. will get putin really angry, so he gets russia (for a random reason) to do a mass Party Rock, Everyday Shuffle, and "Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah" with pop duo LMFAO on tour in Russia, and the "Gangnam Style" with PSY. takes everyone to the moon because he gets sucked into the moon a a Solar storm whilst actually is still is classified as H'Berto. Also, HB becomes a "celebrity" and will have a really popular movie worldwide by Universal Pictures named after him that releases in cinemas in 2014, called: SuperBerto: Russian Reloaded. LMFAO/PSY makes an appearence and Humberto stars in their new music video in 2014 with the epic Redfoo dancing on top of HB with Skyblu, the Boxman and the Dope Zebra and then does the Gangnam Style with PSY. So, so far, so good, a very strong Swedish-forming storm in Europe that makes landfall across Russia. Later, Humberto is nicknamed the "SuperBerto: Storm that is Sorry for Party Rocking." Then, lots of babies and pets in Europe would be called Humberto and Humberta in 2014 and the years to come and then becomes widely popular. So... so far... so good... this is what will happen. Even Humberto joins in the party with LMFAO, the Simpsons, Family Guy, Justin Bieber, Ke$ha, Lady Gaga (one of my favourite singers) and lots more! Humberto then says: "EVERYDAY I'M SHUFFLING!" and "<span style="color:rgb(51,51,51);font-family:arial,sans-serif;line-height:18px;">XD CAUSE IMA﻿ RWK STAR AND I DONT NEED PAWTATOES!! XD" and then does the mass shuffle in Moscow with Redfoo and Skyblu (oh, and Justin Bieber.) Unfortunately, due to the damage in Russia caused by the frozen rain, and heavy snow, Humberto gets retired and replaced by Harry (after Harry Potter and Harry Styles from 1D.) Or maybe.... THE SIMPSONS! DO DO DO.... H B gets replaced by Homer?!? Like Homer Simpson?!? Let the Hum see the Berto. So... which is better? Homer or Harry. Which is better? There's only one way to find out: FIGHT! (Just like what comedian Harry Hill says on TV Burp on ITV.) So, really, cat 5 at Christmas, long lasting, format is similar to Sandy '12 but in Russia, not NYC. *Or if this does not happen, he will form on March 31st (Easter) and make landfall in South Africa whilst reading a Barney book. Then when making landfall in Pretoria, he turns into Barney. He then stomps all over Pretoria and then goes all the way to Johannesburg, demolishing as many buildings as he can.* ϟ☺, αηƴ◎ηε εηʝ☺⑂εⅾ мƴ ﹩т◎я¥⁈ ッ  Rainbow dash run.gif Raraah, Awesome Pony Pinkie pie walking.gif 18:48, January 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * Ingrid -
 * Jerry - Intensifies to a Category 5 two days after formation, and will hit Martinique, Jamaica, Cayman Islands and Cozumel Island at the same intensity before making its final landfall in the Florida Panhandle, the track somehow similar to Wilma (2005). Will reach its peak shortly before final landfall and will be like Sandy (2012) when it reaches the Mid-Atlantic/New England states, but will bring stronger winds (115 mph) and heavier rains/snow, though post-tropical.
