Names

[edit]

RA I TCC is meeting in early october so we should find out the names shortlky after that before the cyclone season begins Jason Rees (talk) 23:59, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be important, to mention that "Lisebo", "Magoma", and "Newa", were previously on the 2006-2007 Season's list? HurricaneCyclone (talk) 01:19, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i Doubt its important but im not sure Jason Rees (talk) 01:26, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Letter R

[edit]

Shall we use or not? Jason Rees (talk) 00:33, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I say drop it but every year the R for the systems that don't receive a name always get marked with it, lol. - グリフオーザー (talk) 03:55, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So would i Jason Rees (talk) 11:55, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's standard in all the other articles to use the RSMC's assigned letter.Potapych (talk) 01:54, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Except the Atlantic & also the letter R is not offically assigned by Reunion Jason Rees (talk) 02:01, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The timeline and references

[edit]

Regarding the timeline, currently it uses a "<ref name=""/>" format which uses a fully-cited reference location from earlier in the article. When the timeline is split off into its own article, the "/" refs will become invalid. Should we use full refs in the "Timeline of recent events" section now or just fix the refs problem later when the information is split? -- RattleMan 04:23, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do it when we split it as its only a C&P Job Jason Rees (talk) 15:11, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Why should we split out the timeline? This article isn't that long (13k) and won't be too long for log. Wikipedia:Article size says articles should be split when longer than 50k or, 10 to 15,000 words (since a big part of the cyclone articles are boxes and/or references, they don't count as words) so maybe we don't need to splitt it off at all. --Matthiasb (talk) 17:13, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Lets wait and see wat happens in the next couple of months before we disscus splitting the timeline Jason Rees (talk) 19:27, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why is all three storm tied with the intensity?

[edit]

Asma, Cinda, Dongo all have the same intensity. HurricaneSpin (talk) 04:43, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Its because we use the RSMC La Reunion Pressure for intensity as opposed to Joint Typhoon Warning Centers pressure. Thus Asma, Cinda and Dongo have the same pressure. Remember though it is subject to change as we are not even 1/2 way through the season. Jason Rees (talk) 21:16, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
after pressure, you use wind, so the strongest storms of the season are Cinda and Dongo with 60 mph winds then Asma with 50 mph winds.--क्षेम्य Tranquility 17:17, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. HurricaneSpin (talk) 01:27, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Irmela is right, after pressure, winds are used to determine intensity. As such, Cinda and Dongo are the strongest storms thus far. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 23:58, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Then I don't know about Ike... HurricaneSpin (talk) 04:31, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Winds would only be used to determine the intensity of a storm if the pressures are the same. Although Gustav had winds of 150mph, it had a pressure of 941mbar, 6mbar higher than Ike. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 04:35, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that ends that. The operation best track lowered Dongo's pressure to 984 hPa, making it the strongest of the season. Cyclonebiskit 22:43, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So sometime Cat 4 could be stronger than Cat 5. HurricaneSpin (talk) 00:03, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In terms of pressure, yes. Cyclonebiskit 00:06, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again. HurricaneSpin (talk) 07:23, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Then shouldn't Rammasun be the strongest may storm in west Pacific? Hurricane Typhoon Cyclone 04:04, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
No, there we other storms stronger than Rammasun. A quick one to beat it would be Super Typhoon Lola of 1986. Minimum pressure was 910 hPa. Cyclonebiskit 12:49, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I put Rammasun as third, behind Damrey and Lola as you mentined, biskit, but i'm not sure about Phylis of '58. 76.235.163.187 (talk) 21:17, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fanele sandbox

[edit]

Is there a fanele sandbox? I can upload some image to it.

No, there is no sandbox for Fanele yet. Weatherlover819 (talk) 01:20, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Someone will be working on it once it dissipates. Cyclonebiskit 01:29, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

storm peak images

[edit]

It says "Storm peak-intensity visible-light pictures. Most storms have a satellite picture of the storm at peak intensity. Higher resolution is always better." on project page but Eric peak image is always reverted, why? Hurricane Typhoon Cyclone 23:55, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The image you keep trying to add in is off center and it shows the storm with a weaker structure. The one that we are trying to keep shows a more organized and developed system and is well centered. Cyclonebiskit 00:00, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Damage

[edit]

Why are all the devastating storms causing "Unknown" damages? HurricaneSpin Talk My contributions 20:37, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Damage figures are not readily available for lesser-developed countries. That's the answer in a nutshell. ♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:48, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
