Why Babet ! for the storm name?

Post by memory man »

Babet was selected by KNMI. It is named after a woman who visited an open day at the weather agency's headquarters and put her name forward, with the reasoning: “Because I was born during a storm.”

KNMI = The Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute
