Looks like this is going to be an interesting week.:hmm:
Not that it matters but Gustav is a male name, and I think a hurricane is also a masculine word, so what's with the "She"?
I've asked that very same question about ships like the TITANIC, BRITANNIC, and OLYMPIC... and the BISMARCK, and the HOOD, and the GRAF ZEPPELIN.
