Frankenstorm coined

[Benjamin Barrett]

Not a particularly surprising coinage, but coining is being given clear credit, to NOAA forecaster Jim Cisco. I can't find a coinage date; October 24 is the earliest citations I can find (such as http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/trick-no-treat-forecasters-predict-pre-halloween-freak-hurricane-winter-storm-mix-for-east/2012/10/25/4934cd26-1e6e-11e2-8817-41b9a7aaabc7_story.html).
