Tropical Storms 'Don' And 'Hilary' Bring Out Political Jokes On Twitter
BOSTON (CBS) -- It's no joke--forecasters are tracking two tropical systems named Don and Hilary.
Don is a remnant of a storm in the Caribbean.
Hilary is a tropical depression in the Pacific Ocean that could become a tropical storm.
The World Meteorological Organization comes up with the names of storms several years in advance, so the names had nothing to do with 2016 presidential candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton--but the coincidence is creating quite a tweetstorm.
So tropical storm Don is coming at America from the right, and Hillary from the left?

Tropical Storm Don causing damage all over the country, while Tropical Storm Hillary will avoid Wisconsin and Michigan.

Tropical Storm Don will tell you how much damage it will do and then fizzle out and blame Hurricane Hillary.
