Default The wettest June on record, BBC

Quick glance through the paper yesterday

'eye of the storm' - no it wasn't - bog standard storm over London

'Tropical Storms' - no Tropical Storms in Britain

"even hail" - hail is common in summer thunderstorms

If people want to know more about the weather, forget some of the
terminology being used in the papers. That is really going to confuse
people

Is it no wonder, some members of public get mixed up between tornados
& hurricanes
