A fact from Typhoon Nancy (1961) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 March 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Super typhoon Nancy is one of the eight typhoons to receive a special name from the Japan Meteorological Agency?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/March.

Todo

Good work, and it's almost at B class IMO. All that's needed is some spelling and grammar fixes. Hurricanehink 20:12, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it looks like a B-class. I think the grammar and spelling mistakes have been fixed. Can I upgrade it? íslenska hurikein #12_(samtal) 20:24, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I got it. More impact is needed as the next todo. Hurricanehink (talk) 00:13, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ACE for Nancy

Got a question, what is a 185 knot typhoon in ACE? So i can know.Mitch azenia(7600+edits) 02:50, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Typhoon Nancy 1961

I wanted to see if there was anything recorded about Nancy in 1961. I was a young sailor on the USS Colonial (LSD-18). We were in the heart of Nancy for several days. The bridge on the Colonial stood 44 feet above the waterline. When we were in the trough, I had to look up to see the wave we were going to go over and look back at the wave we just went over. This is especially notable when the length of the ship sat flat in the trough and we were over 300 feet long! When we crested a wave, the bow submerged and blue water crashed into the bridge windshield. The Captain, Commander Jose Perry, sat in his chair and I could hear him saying, "come up, come up". If anyone has any doubts about Nancy, I'll be glad to tell them about it.
