Hurricane Bud (2012)
[edit]- ... that swimming was banned in Puerto Vallarta on account of Bud?

Date and size check out but I am going to be a bit difficult about the hook. First, it's a bit too pun-ish for our standard, it should be Hurricane Bud, not Bud. Second... is this really the most interesting hook we can have? If so, this was one boooring hurricane. Please ping me on my talk for a speedy re-review. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 03:47, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
- What can I say, I'm a pungeon master. ;) (And if it was ~2 months earlier "Bud closed the beaches" might have made a good April Fools hook.) But perhaps this might be more interesting? - The Bushranger One ping only 15:24, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
- ALT1: ... that over one thousand shelters were opened to accomodate evacuees from Hurricane Bud?
Ok. I still think a more interesting hook could be possible, but at least this is something that's not done for your average strong wind. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk to me 01:52, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
