Thread Name: Why DO they call the wind Mariah?
Subject: RE: Why DO they call the wind Mariah?
Names of winds fascinate me, as do the personalities ascribed to those winds.
For a number of years, I've collected names of winds inside the cover of my dictionary. Yeah, I know I could google and find a longer list than what I've compiled, but I take the time to study the story of each new wind I learn about. I've seen the list that Peace linked to, but I refuse to use it to add to my own list. The winds on my list have to have personalities - they can't just be names on a list.
Well, now that I look at, my list is pretty short:

I swear my list was longer....
"Maria" didn't make it on my list, by the way.
