Omaha baseball team re-named "Storm Chasers"

Here are a couple college football teams with weather names: St. Johns Red Storm and Tulsa Golden Hurricanes.

On Twitter, @capitalweather follower @ErikLutt names some more:

The Oklahoma City Thunder, The ISU Cyclones, Miami Heat

@chemlise submits
The New Orleans Zephyrs (AAA baseball)

and @nat_meg adds the Phoenix suns and Carolina Hurricanes

Some more from another Twitter follower:

@roschwartz - Norfolk Tides (MILB), and Lake Elsinore Storm (MILB)

Once upon a time, long ago, the Eau Claire Normal School [now the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire] called its athletic teams the Golden Tornadoes. The name was later dropped in favor of "Blugolds", after the school colors, but the teams were often called the "Zornadoes" after long-time men's basketball coach Bill Zorn [the new fieldhouse where the basketball teams play has been named the Zorn Arena in his honor].

More recently there has been continuing controversy over the designation of a proper "Blugold" mascot [UW-EC is the only university in the NCAA Division III WIAC without a school mascot]. Several mascots have been proposed: among them the "Voyageur", the "Blue Ox" of Paul Bunyan fame [which won the latest student vote but was apparently disqualified due to election irregularity] and a bird, possibly the "Blugold Macaw". Perhaps a return to the "Golden Tornado" mascot is in order.

Did anyone mention the Trenton Thunder?

For a local team, how about the Washington Wintery Mix?

The DC Miasma.

On the collegiate level: Miami Hurricanes.

For a local team: Washington Hot Air or if it needs to somewhat alliterative: Washington Windbags.

In the old North American Soccer League days, there was (I think) a team called the San Francisco Fog.
