Storm Dolly and the Coincidence of Dolly Parton | Science News

A tropical storm named Dolly is brewing in the Atlantic—just as the world mourns the passing of legendary singer Dolly Parton. It’s a bizarre coincidence, especially since the storm name dates back to 1953 and was even retired and reused over the years. With El Niño keeping hurricane activity low this year, Dolly is expected to remain weak and dissipate before hitting land. Nature’s timing—and naming—sometimes just feels surreal.
