Cerberus, an unofficial name for the current European heat wave, has gone viral—but some meteorologists find it sensationalistic and worry it won't help people take extreme weather seriously.
Whatever the name, naming heatwaves the way we name storms can only help spread awareness of the current climate crisis and the necessary measures to put in place. We need to show charts with these names over and over so that people start connecting the dots between their lifestyle and the threat to their life.

I agree, I think the names help and this one is scary as it should be. Like Lucifer last year. Hellish names make total sense with killing heat waves.
