How are storms named if they run out of names for storms?
Hurricanes are named by using the letters of the alphabet. Names are chosen in alphabetical order, alternating in gender for each storm. 21 letters of the alphabet are used in each year's list and Q, U, X,Y and Z are skipped.
If the number of named storms exceeds 21 then the NHC uses letters of the Greek alphabet (alpha, beta, gamma...) This has only happened once: in the 2005 hurricane season which had 27 named storms all the way up to tropical storm Zeta. At the beginning of the new year the names list is reset back to an "A" name.

What type of pressure area is located over the four corners region of the US?
The Four Corners area is part of the high Colorado plateau which controls local weather.
The conversion formula for Fahrenheit to Celsius (or centigrade) is (°F- 32) x 5/9 = °C.
So (100˚-32=68˚) times 5/9 (68/9= about 7.5) times 5 = 37.5˚ (using a calculator it came to 37.777+˚c)
When converting mentally, where accuracy is not essential, I subtract the 32 from the original ˚ and then divide by 2 and add 1/10th. It gives a rough but adequate range.
Is the Storm Prediction Center's risk scale virtually useless since it has no objective basis?
No. For one thing, while there is a great deal of subjectivity, it is based on objective parameters such as wind shear, helicity, and instability. Second, it does provide a good general idea of the magnitude of the risk and which areas are at the greatest risk. The issuing of a high-risk outlook prior to the tornado outbreak of April 14, 2012 probably saved lives.
What are the methods used for illustrating weather forecast?

Meteorologists employ weather maps to show temperature, precipitation, and pressure systems visually. Additionally, radar imagery is used to track precipitation and storm systems in real time. Animated forecasts and infographics also help convey complex information in an easily digestible format for the public.
