Hi Alex
Extratropical cyclones are commonly known as "windstorms" in the
insurance industry. Names taken from the DWD's analyses. Hence
"Windstorm Erwin" hit us over the weekend. Okay, so it may not be a
great terminology, but it this helps to separate things from hurricane
/ typhoon / tornado - even though all these are effectively
wind-storms!
Just seen Rob's posting the DWD naming scheme - sorry for repeating you
Rob!
