The Track map needs to be updated again. It shows only half of Ophelia and Philippe's path, and it doesn't show hurricane Rina's path. STO12

Not that it is of particular concern at this time, but how is the 2011 Atlantic hurricane season page going to be set up at the end of the season? Will it be like the 2007 Article, where it will need a separate page for the list of storms in the season, or like last seasons, where all it needs is the Seasons Summary section? TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:16, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It will be like last season. We've decided not use the new format (2007 AHS) any longer. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}

Okay, was just wondering. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 00:24, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Im happy to hear, I can see that set up being used on a crazy long season like 2005 but having a seperate list of storms for small seasons was just too confusing. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 22:06, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that format is more confusing to readers than helpful. However, we might as well leave 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2009 as they are, because putting them back might deprive them of their FA/GA status. Rye998 (talk) 21:52, 14 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2006 and 2009 do not have the new format. It is a content fork. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}

Ah, I didn't check back to see about that. Still, their notability status remains unchanged. Rye998 (talk) 20:02, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know it's a cheek to do an edit with a comment "stop the edit wars", but the advisories and the RBT both say that TS Nate formed on the 7th Sept (whether you take UTC or CDT), not the 8th, so I have reinstated this.--Keith Edkins ( Talk ) 16:32, 12 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Worse, these edit warring is spreading via IPs into the German WP article, which is prety much annoying. --Matthiasb (talk) 10:26, 16 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

While there are no active tropical cyclones in the Atlantic, the track map needs to be updated. It is a little behind, still showing Maria near Bermuda. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 19:09, 18 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cyclonebiskit has just updated it. I shall give more thanks to Cyclonebiskit. Aria1561 - DoubleA (talk) 21:41, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There has been a debate over what the line is between direct vs indirect for the north atlantic seasons/hurricanes. It varies from page to page, and is the author's opinion, when it should be the reader's opinion. This was mentioned on Hurricane Irene's Talk here and the words direct and indirect were taken away from the 2011 Atlantic Hurricane Season page by Cyclonebiskit.He said "...merging direct and indirect...due to uncertainty with several storms, best to just use total deaths (111 for the season)" (here) Thoughts? Bar Code Symmetry (talk to me) (What i've done) 20:49, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't like the idea of having direct and indirect. As Cyclonebiskit did, I like the idea of just merging them together. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 20:55, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, I dont really see the need for indirect and direct deaths caused by the storm, exceptions could be if an event occurs after a long period of time that was indirectly related I guess. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:56, 19 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Get ready for the editing on the 2011 AHS page, because according to ATCF, Ophelia has formed. I'm not updating it because its not technically OFFICIAL yet, but if I were you, I would go ahead and make the new sections and everything, and get ready to click save when the advisory comes out.

Yes yes... there's already an unwritten procedure for that :P Darren23^Edits|Mail 02:23, 21 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm proposing removing these references from the Maria and Nate sections of the article. We had a discussion at the project talk page a while back about these sort of trivial records being within the wikipedia articles. What makes these statements more trivial than most is that these systems rank #2. Let me know what you think. Thegreatdr (talk) 01:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, doesn't really need to be on the articles. If it was the earliest formation, that would be different, but that isn't the case. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 01:12, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Even if we agreed to have the info in the article, it would fit better as a single sentence in the season summary section. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 01:16, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see having one of the fastest advancing seasons in history as being trivial. I think things like these have save the casual reader from all the trivia in the article ("Lee reached a peak intensity of 60 mph (95 km/h) early on September 3") and help them put it in some sort of context.--Prosfilaes (talk) 06:37, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is, because the older part of the dataset is incomplete (see the latest updates to HURDAT last week for more added storms for the late 1890s and first decade of the 1900s), we really don't know if seasons earlier in the database were as busy as this year or not. 1933 could have been just as busy, if not moreso, but that was in the era prior to radar, recon, and satellite. Using 1990s standards, at least one (maybe two) of the currently named storms wouldn't have been named. That's why I believe if we do mention this sort of thing, it should be restricted to #1, and stated that it is the "fastest known start" to a hurricane season, or something to that effect. Thegreatdr (talk)

1933 could have been more busy than 2005; despite this, 2005 Atlantic hurricane season starts "The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season was the most active Atlantic hurricane season in recorded history". And I stand by my statement; we fill the article with factual trivia (again, "Lee reached a peak intensity of 60 mph (95 km/h) early on September 3") and give the casual reader no context to what that means.--Prosfilaes (talk) 07:21, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you feel "peak intensity" is too vague, use the phrase "highest maximum sustained wind" during its first use, and it's covered. There's no reason why terms should be left undefined in some way within an article. Otherwise, it could be an obstacle to GA or FA class. I'm not against fastest or slowest start, I'm against trivia such as second quickest start or 10th slowest or 25th strongest TC.... Thegreatdr (talk) 20:10, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's not about peak intensity. Let me rephrase it another way; an article on an Ugandan pop song should tell both that it sold 50,000 copies and that it was the #2 song on Ugandan charts for a month. Without the latter information, I don't know what the first means in the context of Ugandan pop. Raw speeds and dates just aren't of much use to the non-hurricane buff, and I must say I didn't realize how fast this season was developing until I realized that Maria was the second-earliest 13th storm. I'm not talking 10th or 25th; I'm talking second.--Prosfilaes (talk) 03:50, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ophelia is going to need a new Article and right now might be a good time but another good is when it ends. But in conclusion, Ophelia needs a new article for itself. Aria1561 - DoubleA (talk) 16:21, 2 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the sandbox. It is currently missing the meteorological history. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 14:59, 5 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I was looking at the timeline graphic in how it handles both Emily and Ophilia given they both have a split in their history. For Emily, both halves of the bar are the same colour even though acording to the article the re-orgaination never passed TD status; for Ophilia, each half is a different colour depending on the max strength during each period. I don't know which way is "correct", otherwise I would just fix it. Someone should have a look and make the two storms consistant.--Jordan 1972 (talk) 01:44, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for bringing this to my attention..It appears somebody changed Emily earlier and nobody noticed the mistake. As for Ophelia, it is correct. Ophelia started off as a tropical storm, dissipated, and then strengthened into a Category 4. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 01:48, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, well i noticed it but i didn't hink it was a mistake. just a confusion. Aria1561 - DoubleA (talk) 23:12, 4 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Description says Ophelia reached strong Category 4 (Timeline says Category 4 also) during October 1, which would be about 150 mph winds. However, all advisories I can find show maximum winds at 120 mph on October 1. Isn't this a medium Category 3? In this regard, how could it have been a "strong" Cat. 4 during that period? 74.198.164.50 (talk) 03:26, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ophelia reached a max intensity of 120 kts (Category 4 hurricane). I removed the word "strong" since the meaning could be interpreted as either a "strong Category 4 hurricane" or a "strong hurricane" at Category 4 intensity. Darren23^Edits|Mail 04:18, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My HTML and Wikipedia skills are nil, but I'm fairly sure that Philippe doesn't have an ACE of 32.3, not to mention the weird Tropical Storm Pauly stuff that seemed to be up there a few sections ago.

I admit to being surprised that someone would troll a general info hurricane webpage, but I guess it takes all types.

I hate vandelism. ANd just a reminder, remember to sign your signature with 4 ~'s. Aria1561 - DoubleA (talk) 19:48, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sources does not state that it is a cat 3 of 125 mph. Is there currently vandalism going on with this article? Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 18:19, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Someone is apparently trolling us, using subtle vandalism and inserting false information into different sections. Not surprising since none of his/her edits triggered the filters or got immediately reverted. —stay (sic)! 20:39, 8 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think that there is a vandal on the page about the 2011 Atlantic hurricane season. Hurricane Rina is a Category 2 hurricane, with winds of 110mph (I believe this is 100 knots, but I'm not sure, so I'm not changing it). Someone put on there that the winds are 170mph and tha this storm is a full power Category 5 major hurricane on the SSHS. I've looked through EVERY advisory and I have not seen anything that suggests Hurricane Rina was a Category 5 hurricane at any point during its lifetime. It also says that this information was taken at 8:00 a.m. CDT, meand that the time would be 1300UTC. This is also impossible because the NHC only issues advisories on 0000UTC, 0300UTC, 0600UTC, 0900UTC, 1200UTC, 1500UTC, 1800UTC, and 2100UTC. Can someone please fix this and block that vandal from this page? 72.28.15.25 (talk) 13:42, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I had removed those false statements as it was not backed up by a single source. However, the table needs to be fixed (which I'll do now). Thanks, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 13:44, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: Someone just corrected it as soon as I posted this, thank you! 72.28.15.25 (talk) 13:57, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rina's article is at the main article because it is the only Rina, but if Katia and Don don't have the main article despite being the only storms of their names, why is Rina given it? Richard/Shary of last year also aren't given the main article and they fall under the same league as Rina... 98.206.70.2 (talk) 20:05, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because someone bothered to create the page. I dont think it has anything to do with whether or not the other hurricanes deserve there own page.Millertime246 (talk) 00:04, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Until now, we've always had a section called "Current storm Information" on any active storm, which mostly restates the information already in the infobox (adding info about the extent of tropical storm and hurricane force winds), the justification for which seems to be that it's less condensed and more readable than the infobox. Have we stopped doing this? DOSGuy (talk) 17:55, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

IMO I have always thought that the "Current storm information" section is indeed redundant to the infobox. In fact, every time I'm the one that adds the infobox for a newly-formed storm, like what I did on Sean, I never really bothered to include the "Current storm information" section at all ... instead some other editor(s) add it in. If this could be a vote, I would vote for just the infobox information only. 89119 (talk) 21:07, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What's wrong with redundancy, especially if it is only temporary? Has anyone ever considered the the infobox could be removed instead of the current storm information? YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 00:01, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well....what are we going to do with the first actively monitored Mediterranean tropical cyclone? Are we putting it in this article for now or is a Mediterranean article going to be created? Cyclonebiskit (talk) 00:24, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop removing this section. What goes in an article is a classic thing to discuss on an article talk page, and if you feel the need to direct the discussion to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tropical cyclones, do it on this page in a response.--Prosfilaes (talk) 22:01, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I created a section for this storm, based on all of the information that I could gather from various advisories. It is located on this page: Mediterranean Tropical Cyclones. Please forgive me; since I am not a user, I could not post any of some the images that I found. (Sorry, again!!!) And I also forgot some of the reference websites. Well, when you're rushing (especially to create a new section), it is very pressuring. Anyways, enjoy the new section. I worked really hard to put it together. (And I mean it!!! LOL.) 72.197.253.243 (talk) 22:54, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I restored the Mediterranean tropical cyclone page, so the information that the page formerly contained should now be much easier (and much more convenient) to access. 72.197.253.243 (talk) 10:34, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't work. I guess I will need a lot of support, in order to make this happen. 72.197.253.243 (talk) 02:55, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

To avoid what occurred as several project users created a sandbox on Hurricane Ophelia, I have created a project-level sandbox for Tropical Storm Sean, which is located here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Tropical cyclones/Tropical Storm Sean.--12george1 (talk) 03:23, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why was the season summary section removed? Yea, it is bloated and not sourced, but It is better than no section at all IMO. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 16:48, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• As I mentioned in IRC, the Season Summary section is not well written. Additionally, the Season Summary section is supposed to be about impact during the season and the seasons statistics itself. However, in this case, it talks about every single storms formation, dissipation, and track. In my opinion, no Season Summary section is better than a poorly written one. I am willing to rewrite it when the season ends, but if somebody wants to do it before so, go right ahead. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 16:54, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yesterday, the National Hurricane Center released their Tropical Cyclone Report of AL152011 (Nate). They even upgraded the storm to a hurricane. But, for some unknown reason, they took it down yesterday, and changed the name back to 'Tropical Storm Nate' on the main TCR page. Should be revert our edits to show TS Nate instead of Hurricane Nate, or just wait and see what what has changed (or not) when they release it again. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 12:31, 18 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

According to this article, which has had confirmation by the National Hurricane Center, they have decided to declare one of the invests that developed in early September an Unnamed Tropical Storm. Do we add this to the article now, or wait until the TCR comes out? TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 02:17, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Of course, since that source is a WP:RS. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}

I think we should wait until we get confirmation from the NHC. It isn't part of any official database yet, so I don't think we should add it. There is a chance the agency could merely be thinking of adding that storm. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 02:26, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, and when I went to add it, I came across a /small/ problem (joking)...We don't know the formation/dissipation dates, the winds, pressure, or anything of that. We'll have to wait for the TCR...or not (If they don't upgrade), I guess. TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 02:51, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The newspaper is a reliable source, and if it is not upgraded after all, we can always change it. However, I think it should go in a "other storms" section. Sorta like the 2006 Central Pacific cyclone. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 02:55, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But we had several sources back up the 2006 CPAC cyclone, particular with regards to its dates, winds, pressure, and whatnot. We can only guess right now, which would be WP:OR. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:01, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kierant676 on the Awesome Hurricanes Wiki says peak intensity was 35 knots, formed on September 1 and dissipated on the 3rd. 70.127.233.228 (talk) 03:20, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That wiki is fake, thus fails WP:RS. Hink, I don't see why we can't say "An unnamed tropical system formed in early September between Canda and Bermuda". YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 03:27, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to get further verifiable confirmation than just one news story. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 04:04, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Someone emailed the NHC, and they said they confirmed it, but we can't source emails. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane}

Yea, so I think we should wait until the NHC actually verifies it then online. It sounds like that'll be soon. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 05:57, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Im with Hink here, until it is verified online by NHC that is correct then we can not add it. That is either on the NHC RBT, TCR or a press release.Jason Rees (talk) 12:07, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Definitely wait until a TCR is released...all we have right now is word of mouth, not a direct article from the NHC stating that it's being added. Cyclonebiskit (talk) 14:43, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The wikia is unreliable/fake; the source above ^ is fine. Best we wait, then add a section later. HurricaneFan25 14:58, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it was 94L on or around September 1st. It would have been Lee. I'm fine with waiting for the TCR though. -CWY2190(talk • contributions) 15:06, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, wait for the TCR. Do they keep BT's for non-developing invests or destroy them? Since we would have the data from that 94L if so. However, we would only be able to speculate when it became a TC since we need to know when it lost its frontal structure or gained enough deep convection, and when that phase was lost. It would be OR. CrazyC83 (talk) 18:13, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, judging by the way this system looks, and the way that it has been holding up (which is pretty impressive, by the way), it probably did make it to tropical storm intensity, before dissipating on September 3. Well, here is an interesting webpage you might want to read. Anyways, Cyclonebiskit and Jason Rees are right. We have no solid proof (as of now) of this storm (Invest 94L) attaining tropical storm status. Best that we wait until the TCR (Tropical Cyclone Report). But still, this storm is still kind of interesting. Anyways, I'll be keeping an eye on this (and I'm also sure that many of you will, as well), and see how it turns out. Well, just check out the website. It has a lot of good information. 72.197.253.243 (talk) 22:52, 22 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

:I believe that the Unnamed Tropical Storm should be given its section on the article now. A post on facebook by the NHC confirms that they have upgraded the system, and a TCR will be out by November 30. However, they give us the dates between August 31-September 3 when the system was active, and we can always leave the wind/pressure areas blank like we do with old seasons until the TCR.

It says "LO" though. We're just waiting for the TCR. There's no need to rush. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 20:51, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2011 Atlantic Hurricane Season is finally over. And at last, the NHC did classify Invest 94L as a tropical storm. They released the information in a TCR, which has been referenced in the 2011 page. The section for the Unnamed storm looks pretty nice. I'm so glad that they finally resolved the issue. 72.197.253.243 (talk) 10:21, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to go ahead and bring up this discussion in the hopes that this can be easily decided. I am proposing, that for the 2011 Atlantic hurricane season, we use the format that we did for the seasons of 2005, 2006, and 2007. I have already started a sandbox here and have already created the subpage here. I believe this format will work quite well for this season because it featured a high amount of impacts, and currently is tied with the seasons of 2010, 1887, and 1995 for third most active Atlantic hurricane season on record. Opinions? TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 21:58, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Earlier this year, we agreed to abandon the format of 2006 and 2007. Simply put, there's no need to have both types of articles, since they constitute a content fork, and the format for 99% of WPTC's season articles works perfectly fine. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:13, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you don't. First, the season did not have that high of an impact, and 2 it is a reeducate and an unacceptable type of content fork. FYI, 2006 does not have this format. YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 22:15, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Use the 2010 format. The format you propose really works only for 2005. Titoxd^{(?!? - cool stuff)} 23:03, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I am againt the format of the season summary and seperate pages for the storms, it makes things to confusing. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 19:20, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

CSU has released their summary of the 2011 Atlantic tropical cyclone activity today, and it mentions the Unnamed tropical storm. According to the article, the Unnamed tropical storm had a peak intensity of 45 mph and a pressure of 1002 mbar., and lasted from September 1 - September 2. Should we use this source? -- TropicalAnalystwx13 (talk) 22:15, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No, the CSU is preliminary. ----Bruvtakesover (talk!) 22:17, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We have to wait until TCR comes out. The NHC said by November 30. It's not even up yet. 70.127.233.228 (talk) 00:04, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Its been delayed by a few days according to a post on their facebook page but yeah i feel it is best that we wait until we have the TCR in our hands as that way we are not committing any OR.Jason Rees (talk) 00:05, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We got a TCR on the storm. You can use the ref in the Unnamed Tropical Storm Section to see it, on the 2011 page (ref 77, as of December 4). 72.197.253.243 (talk) 10:19, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe somebody should start making the track and get a picture for the unnamed tropical storm. 70.127.233.228 (talk) 21:42, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure Cyclonebiskit will be doing that shortly. ----Bruvtakesover (talk!) 21:48, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

They have been added to the page. ----Bruvtakesover (talk!) 01:51, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"Had the storm been classified operationally, it would have been named Tropical Storm Lee." Is this sentence really needed? Or is this just a "trivia record"? 68.113.150.95 (talk) 03:07, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's trivial. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:08, 3 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Several users are editing this page rapidly, unneeded information, symbols, and different versions of pictures keep getting added without being addressed on the talk page. This page rather needs to be protected or there needs to be around the clock patrol for random vandalism. Remember, anything that is something big on the article, needs to be addressed on the talk page before it gets added. (It is considered vandalism if something keeps getting added after deletion without being addressed on talk page). STO12 (talk) 05:47, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the symbols are required per WP:Accessibility.Jason Rees (talk) 14:00, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your concern, but not everything needs to be addressed by talk page, and no, that is not really vandalism, it is more of a start to an edit war, which may need to be discussed on here if it grows out of hand. With that said, I don't see what's wrong with what people that have been adding (excluding stuff that was reverted). YE ^{Pacific Hurricane} 14:06, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I find the new format of the timeline inacceptable, without regards what WP:Accessibility says. Especially the wider iamge is a no go. Most users won't see it without vertical scrolling. Bear in mind that more and more users are using netbooks with smaller monitor resolutions or mobile devices. --Matthiasb (talk) 10:03, 24 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Bret's photo needs to be replaced with the version before it. It is blurry and doesn't show up on mobile devices. It needs to be restored with the version before it. STO12 (talk) 20:15, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The initial section gives a total season damage amount (uncited) that is less than the amount given later on for Irene alone. Mangoe (talk) 17:31, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
