💨 Abstract
The UK is preparing for Storm Floris. The naming order appears disjointed because Spain named Storm Herminia. The UK adopts names from Spain, Ireland, and the Netherlands for consistency. Previous storms, like Storm Eowyn, had significant impacts with wind speeds exceeding 100mph. Storm names are chosen for significance and are inspired by historical figures related to weather science. The UK has named storms since 2015 to simplify extreme weather communication.
