SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment has filed a new trademark for "Tempesto," for use on "entertainment services in the nature of an amusement park ride."

It has an interesting ring to it, no?

Doing a bit of google translating, it seems like in Italian the word tempesto means stormed, and Wiktionary points out that it is the "first-person singular present indicative of tempestare." Tempestare is to rain in a storm like fashion, or to bombard. One site even lists the word as having a meaning of to "hail curses," though I only saw that one once.

Things would be easier if I spoke Italian, but it generally sounds like a culmination of those definitions could be fitting for a coaster ride. Perhaps.

It does make me think of Busch Gardens Williamsburg's leaked 2015 plans, which are in the park's Fiesta Italia section. Could there be a connection? I have no clue - but the company also has a history of trademarking several names and obviously only using one in the end.

Tempesto translate to a strong storm. You know, heavy rain, strong winds.
