Welcome to the tropical cyclone WikiProject!

[edit]

Hi there! Welcome to the tropical cyclone WikiProject. I'm always glad to see fellow weather enthusiasts around here. I'm curious, what aspect of tropical cyclones are you most interested in? Newer or older storms? Climatology or individual seasons? Happy editing, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions! ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 18:06, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is rather exciting to see the storms headed towards Florida! What is your favorite? Iovecodeabc (talk) 18:50, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh same here, that's what got me tracking storms for the first time! It's why I wrote List of Florida hurricanes, which has the 500 or so tropical cyclones that have affected the state. I'm a little upset the newest list (2000 to present) lost its featured list status, because there's just too many storms affecting the state to keep up with! I like when you find older storms that are precedents for modern storms, like the 1933 Trinidad hurricane as a parallel to Hurricane Beryl. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:00, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I thought you were a New Jersite lol. Iovecodeabc (talk) 20:27, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Born in Jersey, family in Florida, lived in NY and California, and I've traveled all over the US, so I like pretty much all US weather. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:29, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh.
What is your favorite hurricane?Iovecodeabc (talk) 22:27, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Probably Hurricane Ivan, but that could be because it's on my mind with Beryl. Wbu? ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:38, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mine is probably Hurricane Irma or Ian. I don't like historical storms, especiallly those with pre-GOES satellite images. Iovecodeabc (talk) 16:43, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gotcha, yea there's certainly a "new era" in the Atlantic, which kinda began in 1995 with the more recent active period, which was especially true by 2005, and has just gone nuts since then (especially storms like Irma and Ian). Have you looked at List of Florida hurricanes (2000–present)? It recently lost its FL status because of lack of references and information. Do you have any interest in maybe helping with that article? If so, could you try rewriting the section for Ian? Right now it doesn't mention the damage total, the death toll of 150 (that's only mentioned at the bottom under the "deadly storms" section), the rainfall total, the proper number of houses without power. It's a lot to summarize, but all of the information and sources already exist in the Ian article, so it's just a matter of writing it right and with the correct sources. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 17:40, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
