Default Kinda/sorta boating/weather question...

With the huge storm system - which hurrcane wind warnings - boiling
off the VA/NC/SC coastline, what would you do if you were the NHC?

1 - Name the storm and then prepare to catch all the BS as a result?

2 - Just continue high wind/surf advisories and kind of ignore the
hurricane that's developing out there.

Personally, I'd name it - what the hell - another .50¢ per gallon of
gas/diesel isn't going to hurt anybody. :)

There's no point in naming a storm.

Besides, we'll eventually be working our way through the entire
alphabet twice a year.

We don't name the typhoons on this side of the rock, and even so we
manage to get along quite nicely.
