[edit] Usage
| Parameter | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| {{{Basin}}} | Mandatory | A abbreviation denoting what basin is represented | Atl, EPac, WPac, NIO, SHem, SWI, SPac, and Aus currently defined |
| {{{Year}}} | Optional | The year of the season, if a multiple year span is covered, use the most recent | 2005 |
| {{{Track}}} | Optional | The location of the track map, if present. | 2005 Atlantic hurricane season map.png |
| {{{First storm formed}}} | Mandatory | Formation date (generally tropical storm-strength) of first storm (full date) | June 8, 2005 |
| {{{Last storm dissipated}}} | Mandatory | Dissipation date of last storm (full date) | January 6, 2006 |
| {{{Strongest storm name}}} | Mandatory | The name of the strongest storm(s). Wikilink if appropriate. | Wilma |
| {{{Strongest storm pressure}}} | Optional | The minimum pressure of the strongest storm in mbar/hPa. Must be a number. | 882 |
| {{{Strongest storm winds}}} | Optional | The maximum windspeed of the strongest storm in knots. Must be a number. | 160 |
| {{{Average wind speed}}} | Optional | The length of time used to find the average measurement of the storm's maximum sustained winds. | 10 |
| {{{Total depressions}}} | Optional | The total number of depressions in a season | 31 |
| {{{Total storms}}} | Optional | The total number of storms of at least TS strength | 28 |
| {{{Total hurricanes}}} | Optional | The total number of hurricane-strength systems | 15 |
| {{{Total intense}}} | Optional | For the Atlantic and N Pacific basins; the number of Major Hurricanes or Super Typhoons | 7 |
| {{{Fatalities}}} | Optional | Total number of people killed (directly and indirectly) during the season. Use a range of values if necessary. If not used gives "Unknown". | ≥2,280 |
| {{{Damages}}} | Optional | Total damages from the season. This is expressed in millions of dollars in the year of the season. If not used gives "Unknown". If used must be a number. | 120000 |
| {{{Inflated}}} | Optional | Gives the total damages from the season, in CURRENT year dollars. Use this parameter to call the number, and to state how many decimal places you want the figure to. | 2 |
| {{{fiveseasons}}} | Mandatory | Links to the next and previous 2 seasons around this one. In most cases this is just the previous 2 years and the following 2 years, with the current year in the center. For multi-season articles it takes a little more thought. | 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 |
| {{{Strongest CPac name}}} | Optional | For Pacific hurricane seasons only, the name of the strongest CPac storm. | Ioke |
| {{{Strongest CPac pressure}}} | Optional | As for the strongest storm, for the CPac only | |
| {{{Strongest CPac winds}}} | Optional | As for the strongest storm, for the CPac only |
[edit] Calculations
- Pressure: If {{{basin}}} is one of Atl or EPac the template will calculate the pressure in inHg from the pressure in mbar and quote to 2dp.
- Windspeeds: The template takes parameters here in terms of knots and returns mph and km/h (the order depending on the basin). It returns these to the nearest 5.
