At the rate things are going, we could get to Alpha by the end of this week, and I'd be surprised if we don't get to it by the end of the month.
(It seems likely we'll see Wilfred tomorrow.)

When I wrote that 12 hours ago I was expecting TD 22 to become Wilfred... but the tropical wave in the eastern tropical Atlantic beat it to that. So now there are decent odds we'll have TS Alpha today (as TD 22 strengthens).

OK, TD 22 didn't get Alpha either. We might get to Beta today.
If you were away for a couple of hours, you might have missed the two latest Atlantic storms. #Wilfred is no threat to land, while #Alpha is just offshore of Portugal. For more on Alpha's hazards see ipma.pt & the NHC advisories are at hurricanes.gov

Could just go through en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ky%C5%… in order. But then the question... on'yomi or kun'yomi?
