Add Alenga

[edit]

Alenga needs to be added. It has formed. 68.113.150.95 (talk) 00:59, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It was added yesterday. ----Bruvtakesover (talk!) 01:11, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, I was looking at an outdated version of the article. 68.113.150.95 (talk) 02:16, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Clarity for reader - area of the world?

[edit]

Quick comment.

I accessed this article interested to follow up on the cyclone Alenga.

I had trouble working out where the storm is in broader region of the Indian Ocean. Visually, I was trying to place it from the text, then the map indicating cyclone track. I thought it could be off the SW coast of India or Indonesia or Sri Lanka. I probably should be able to tell from which cyclone centre is tracking it, but this is not general knowledge for a random reader. I could look up latitude and longitude, but my interest was for a quick glance read.

Value your article and timeliness. Offering this suggestion/feedback from someone who is a random reader out there. I searched and came to this wiki article from reading about this cyclone on the Phys Org site re NASA s TRMM satellite observations of Alenga.

Thanks a lot for your input! There aren't many editors, so if you wanted to join the project, we could use your help! That being said, I hope I took care of your comment. I added into on where the basin was located. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:06, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ethel

[edit]

Ethel caused one death in Rodrigues. I saw it in the News. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 08:09, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Source? - as im sure you are aware, you seeing it on the news isnt a good enough source even though your a Mauritian as i cant verify it.Jason Rees (talk) 08:13, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I know. But the local newspapers have not been published online yet. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 08:56, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I saw it somewhere online yesterday... can't find it anymore. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 09:00, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Wait. I am going to try something. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 09:02, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I found this. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 09:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's in French.. I know French, so can translate if needed. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 09:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Lol. We posted nearly at the same time. :D Jivesh1205 (Talk) 09:07, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This one is a local newspaper. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 09:09, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think we have enough sources for now. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 09:10, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Happy to help. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 09:12, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Funso sandbox

[edit]

Here is the sandbox for Funso. I'm working on the MH right now. Anyone is welcome to work on the impact section. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:34, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please create the article, so everyone can edit easily. -- Meow 12:34, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, because an IP from Hong Kong has created a (very undetailed) sandbox for Funso over at AFC. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 12:44, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone help with this sandbox? I'm working on the MH, so if anyone could help with the impact, that'd be great. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:54, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In your own time ....

[edit]

It seems the web site of the Madagascar Ministry of Public Works and Meteorology has been down for maintenance for over two years! Not a good source of emergency preparedness information, then.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 13:58, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well it looks like we'll have to find something else for Giovanna then. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 14:01, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Giovanna

[edit]

Giovanna has become the most dangerous tropical cyclone in early 2012 and a major threat to Madagascar. Should we create Cyclone Giovanna? -- Meow 18:52, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Bruvtakesover (T|C) 19:07, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm on it. HF25 21:56, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The strongest

[edit]

Giovanna has lower central pressure, but Funso has higher maximum sustained winds. Why is the strongest one Giovanna instead of Funso? -- Meow 19:16, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Because AFAIK we go via pressure and not winds for strongest tc.Jason Rees (talk) 19:18, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I already know this, but I wonder the reason. -- Meow 20:04, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Pressure is a more reliable way of determining the power of a storm system whereas the winds are a byproduct of the pressure. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 21:03, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thus, do you mean that a tropical storm may be weaker than a tropical depression because of higher pressure? That is really ridiculous. -- Meow 04:52, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

i agree with you, user:"Meow".But the thing is, cyclones which are a low pressure area, and the lower the stronger.218.102.162.202 (talk) 13:08, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Many extratropical cyclones which higher than 1,000 hPa had higher maximum winds (≥50kt). In 2011, both Talas and Sonca were 970 hPa, but they were STS and TY. Also, all agencies use winds instead of pressure to judge the strength. -- Meow 08:12, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
You mean anticyclones? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 08:57, 19 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Irina

[edit]

Irina clearly deserves an article of its own. Just look at the lives it took, and the places it impacted. 72.197.249.141 (talk) 01:02, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you too! It makes sense! 219.77.35.16 (talk) 03:49, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
