Impact

In their latest report to the WMO's RA V Tropical Cyclone Committee, the Kiribati Meteorological Service mentions that Pali, had a significant impact on Kiribati. As a result, this article will need to be updated to include whatever impacts occurred.Jason Rees (talk) 16:53, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Where do I find the report? I've never gone through their reports before. I don't see any mention of Pali in any of the most recent ones, and the links to the ones from 2016 and earlier are dead on the WMO's site. LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk) 16:31, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@LightandDark2000: go to this, click "here", open the folder "03_DAY1-DAY2_ReviewCycloneSeason", then scroll down until you find the Kiribati document. The report itself doesn't detail what exactly Pali caused on Kiribati but alludes to fatalities and property damage. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 02:36, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

United Nations report says four casualties from a grounded cargo ship and significant inundation. ~ Cyclonebiskit (chat) 05:14, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Coastal inundation caused by swells, spring tide, and ENSO-related sea level rise: [1], [2]. Haven't found much else. ~ KN2731 {talk · contribs} 06:27, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Cyclonebiskit and KN2731: Thanks for finding these resources which help break down the mystery, surrounding the damage in Kiribati from Pali.Jason Rees (talk) 01:43, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
