From the editors In recent months, the project has become increasingly inactive; with only a few active participants, we need your help for the upcoming hurricane season! Feel free to contact Juliancolton (talk · contribs), Jason Rees (talk · contribs), or Cyclonebiskit (talk · contribs) for more information. Thanks! Storm of the month Hurricane Carlos was the third named storm of the 2009 Pacific hurricane season. Tropical Depression Four-E formed on July 10, and was quickly upgraded to Tropical Storm Carlos. On July 11, the storm strengthened into a minimal Category 1 hurricane. Following a series of intensity fluctuations, Carlos peaked as a Category 2 hurricane with winds of 105 mph (165 km/h). The storm subsequently began to weaken, and on July 16, Carlos degenerated into a remnant low. The cyclone had no known effects on land.

There are currently three Featured Article candidates and three Featured List candidates pertaining to tropical cyclones. SchuminWeb (talk · contribs) pointed out towards the end of the month that hurricane disambiguation pages are often over-categorized. Efforts are currently underway to address this. A discussion is underway at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Timeline of the 1987 Atlantic hurricane season/archive1 regarding the use of HURDAT as a reference. Input is appreciated. Tropical cyclones at associated Wikimedia projects Wikinews published articles related to: Tropical Storm Blanca, Tropical Storm Carlos, and Tropical Storm Dolores.

ACE calculations

I actually use a spreadsheet, but a calculator should be quite adequate. Have you looked at the running calculation page Talk:2009 Pacific hurricane season/ACE calcs?

Tropical Storm Danny (2009)

Hello, Darren. I see that you merged the content of Danny's article into the season article. Another editor has complained about the result of the merge, saying that the large amount of content is hard on the eyes (and I agrhttp://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Darren23/Archive_2&action=editee with him). Could you please join the discussion and express your thoughts on this? Cheers, Dylan620 (contribs, logs)^{help us!} 21:01, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
