DYK for Hurricane Holly (1969)

On 5 December, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Hurricane Holly (1969), which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

BorgQueen (talk) 03:11, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm confused...

Two of your recent edits to the seasons talk pages undo indents, I've undone the indent changes because it doesn't make any sense as to why they were removed. They're there to separate different users talking. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 23:35, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Ok, your original edit put them all to one indent, which threw me off, and led to the undoing of it. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 23:40, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Your rollback request

Hello Elena85, I have granted your account rollback in accordance with your request. Please remember that rollback is for reverting vandalism, and that misuse of the tool, either by revert-warring with other users, or simply reverting edits you disagree with, can lead to it being removed. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 23:50, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: Hi

Yeah, I like the sig. Reminds me of Elonka's. Congratulations on getting Rollback, BTW! --Dylan620 _Contribs ^Sign! 10:36, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

I think your signature makes me hate you as much as I hate Elonka.Ian9x (talk) 21:29, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Of course I'm acting immature! I have 14 blocked accounts!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ian9x (talk) 21:37, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

She can't block me Irmela and please stay out of this dispute for your own sanity.Ian9x (talk) 21:42, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Blocked. And to answer your question, Irmela, yes, we can protect your talkpage to keep new accounts from editing it, though we generally only do this for short periods of time. If you'd like such protection though, just ask. In the meantime, I'd recommend WP:DENY: If a troll posts to your page, just delete it quietly and go on with the good work that you're doing. :) You can also drop a note to me or some other admin, on- or off-wiki, and we'll block as necessary. Best, --Elonka 23:15, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Re: 1951 Pacific typhoon season

Do you know if this one is really Georgia [1]? I only have numbers in the tracks for those years. Potapych (talk) 18:34, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

The rest should be at commons now. Potapych (talk) 03:03, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

1997 Pacific hurricane season FT under retention...

Hey, the creation of Timeline of the 1997 Pacific hurricane season kinda means the 1997 Pacific hurricane season should go under retention, as that article presents a notable gap. In other words, the topic has 3 months from the date of the article's creation (i.e. until March 25) to get the article to FL and into the topic, otherwise someone can nominate the topic for removal - rst20xx (talk) 00:53, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: Auring

Yeah i knew it was 30 knots from PAGASA, I was just using what was quoted in the logs on the Talkpage. though i think it may be better now to leave it at 30 kts & warning Center=PAGASA until JMA designate it as a 30 knot TD Jason Rees (talk) 01:22, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Tropical cyclones WikiProject Newsletter #23

Number 23,

The Hurricane Herald

This is the monthly newsletter of WikiProject Tropical Cyclones. The Hurricane Herald aims to give a summary, both of the activities of the WikiProject and global tropical cyclone activity. If you wish to change how you receive this newsletter, or no longer wish to receive it, please add your username to the appropriate section on the mailing list. This newsletter covers all of November & December 2008.

Please visit this page and bookmark any suggestions of interest to you. This will help improve monitoring of the WikiProject's articles.

Storm of the month

Hurricane Paloma

Hurricane Paloma
Hurricane Paloma was the second most powerful November hurricane on record in the Atlantic Basin, behind Hurricane Lenny in 1999. It was the third and final major hurricane to hit Cuba in 2008, being the first time that three major hurricanes have struck Cuba in one season. It also marked the first time that at least one major hurricane formed in every month of the hurricane season from July to November, with only June not having a major hurricane this season.

Hurricane Paloma was also the last Tropical Depression of the 2008 season, and caused at least $1.4 billion in damage and was responsible for at least one direct death.

Other tropical cyclone activity

• Eastern Pacific Ocean– Tropical Storm Polo was the only Tropical Storm to form during November and December.

• Western Pacific Ocean – There were five tropical depressions during the last two months of the 2008 Pacific typhoon season. Though only four of them developed into Tropical storms with only Dolphin becoming a Typhoon.

• North Indian– There were three Tropical Depressions during the last two months of the 2008 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, however there were only two that officially became Tropical Storms being named Khai-Muk and Nisha.

• South Indian– Cyclone Bernard was the first cyclone of the year to move into the Australian Region from the Southwest Indian Ocean. Forming on early on November 19 it quickly intensified into a Moderate Tropical Storm the next day, however as it moved westward it weakened into a Tropical Depression and moved into Australia's Bureau of Meteorology's area of responsibility and dissipated later on November 21.

• Australian - There were four tropical lows during November and December with Tropical Low ex Bernard moving into the Australian Region from the South-West Indian Ocean. Two of the Lows developed into Tropical Cyclones being named Anika and Billy respectively. Anika intensified into a category two cyclone whilst Cyclone Billy became a Severe Tropical Cyclone after it had affected Northern Australia.

• The 2008–09 South Pacific cyclone season got off to an slow start during November and December, with three Tropical Disturbances forming during December. Only one of the tropical disturbances developed into a tropical depression.

Project News
During the last two months there have been several important discussions of which some are still seeking contributions from members. These include discussions about:

Project Importance - Is it better to rate Storm Importance by basin or by overall importance? - There seems to be a consensus to rate storm importance on a case by case basis, though there still needs to be a bit more discussion on this matter.

Prominent units within TC articles: Imperial or SI? - Which should be the prominent unit outside the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific Basins, Knots or MPH? Generally people think that Knots should not be used except in the general science articles and infoboxes.

ACE - Where and how, should it be used? - We have decided that it should not be used outside the Atlantic or the Eastern Pacific hurricane Seasons. A debate is still ongoing with a view too get rid of it all together.

JMA Tropical Depressions Should we include them with the season articles or not? - The general consensus so far seems to be that we should include them in the season articles though this debate is still ongoing.

We discovered during December that the Australian Bureau of Meteorology have started to designate the Tropical Lows that form within their region with letter U. It is unclear whether either TCWC Jakarta or TCWC Port Moresby assign any designations to lows that form within their Area of Responsibility.
