Be prepared for Agnes, Debi, Elin and Gerrit.
Because they're the names of any storms that the UK will get in 2023/2024.
And let's face it, we have faced plenty over the years such as Ali, Arwen, Barra, Doris, Frank and Eunice.
If it's a particularly bad year, you might get to see all of Agnes, Babet, Ciaran, Debi, Elin, and Fergus.
Perhaps even Gerrit, Henk, Isha, Jocelyn, Kathleen, Lilian, Minnie, Nicholas.
There's a chance of Olga, Piet, Regina, Stuart, Tamiko, Vincent and Walid.
In the meantime, reflect on these Sunderland Echo scenes from the past.
