I was listening to sports talk radio last week, and one of the guys used the term “tsunami” to describe rainstorms that had moved through our area. While I often hear that description, it is a misuse of the term. From my lens as a meteorologist, atmospheric sciences professor, and the former president of the American Meteorological Society (AMS), I thought it would be fun to document eight misused weather terms that I have noticed over the years. Which ones are you guilty of using?
