[edit] Most Notable Storm

I'd say that Ginger was the most notable storm of the season, wouldn't you?

I agree. Someone should change that, I mean, Doria?!?! Ask anyone in the weather community who Ginger was, they'll say the longest storm ever. Doria, though? Wow... Hurricanehink 22:23, 21 August 2005 (UTC)

I never heard of doria but it apparently did $150 million in damages...a lot more than Ginger. Jdorje 00:57, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
True, but Damage doesn't equal notability. Ginger's 28 days of existence is more notable, IMO, than a moderately damaging tropical storm. Hurricanehink 01:11, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
