Sources of Information
----------------------
The track coordinates, central pressure and 1-minute average
maximum sustained wind values were obtained from the operational
forecast/advisories issued by the Tropical Prediction Center/National
Hurricane Center located in Miami, Florida. A 1-minute averaging
period is the standard used by all U. S. civilian and military
warning services for tropical cyclone warnings.

Note: After NHC issued their final advisory on Delta at 28/1500 UTC,
warning responsibility was handed over to Meteo France. I was able to
obtain only one warning from that agency, at 29/0000 UTC, and the
location was quite close to the NHC forecast position for that hour.
The final three data points in the above track are the NHC forecast
positions and intensities taken from the final advisory.

NORTHWEST PACIFIC (NWP) - North Pacific Ocean West of Longitude 180
Sources of Information
----------------------
The track coordinates and 1-minute average maximum sustained wind
values in general were taken from operational warnings issued by the
Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) of the U. S. Air Force and Navy,
located at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The central pressure and 10-minute
average maximum sustained wind estimates for most systems were obtained
from warnings issued by the Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA), which
is the World Meteorological Organization's Regional Specialised Meteor-
ological Centre for the basin. In a few instances, information from
warnings issued by other Asian warning centers may have been utilized.
The center position coordinates from JMA and other centers were com-
pared with those from JTWC and annotations made in the Remarks column
when the differences in general amounted to 40-50 nm or more.
Michael V. Padua of Naga City in the Philippines, owner of the
Typhoon 2000 website, sends me cyclone tracks based upon warnings
issued by the Japanese Meteorological Agency and the Philippines'
Atmospheric, Geophysical & Astronomical Services Administration
(PAGASA). Also, Huang Chunliang of Fuzhou City, China, sends me
each month a table comparing the maximum intensities assigned to each
cyclone from all the applicable warning centers in the Northwest
Pacific basin. A very special thanks to Michael and Chunliang for
the assistance they so reliably provide.
Regarding the MSW comparison tables, Huang Chunliang has often
stated: "In the title line the storm grade has been adopted based on
the classification of the most 'radical' TCWC. Also, all the storm
names/numbers available to me have been referenced. In addition, the
starting date points to the one when the system was initially upgraded
to TD status by whatever TCWC, while the ending date represents the one
when the storm was last ranked as a TD or a tropical system by whatever
TCWC."

CORRECTIONS TO THE MSW TABLE FOR AUGUST
Huang Chunliang has sent me a couple of corrections to the MSW
comparison tables included in the August tracks file:
(1) The NMCC Storm ID for "Super Typhoon 14W/NABI/0514/JOLINA" should
have been "Typhoon 0514 (NABI)" rather than "Severe Tropical Storm
0514 (NABI)".
(2) The HKO Storm ID for "Super Typhoon 14W/NABI/0514/JOLINA" should
have been "Typhoon NABI (0514)" rather than "Severe Tropical Storm
NABI (0514)".

NORTH INDIAN OCEAN (NIO) - Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea
Sources of Information
----------------------
The track coordinates and 1-minute average maximum sustained wind
values in general were taken from operational warnings issued by the
Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) of the U. S. Air Force and Navy,
located at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Occasionally some information may
have been gleaned from the daily tropical weather outlooks and other
bulletins issued by the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), which
is the World Meteorological Organization's Regional Specialised Meteor-
ological Centre for the basin. Information was also used from tracks
based upon warnings issued by the Thai Meteorological Department.
The reported maximum sustained winds are based on a 1-minute
averaging period, which is used by all U. S. civilian and military
weather services for tropical cyclone warnings. For synoptic
observations in the North Indian Ocean region, both 10-minute and
3-minute average winds are employed, but IMD makes no attempt to
modify the Dvorak scale for estimating tropical cyclone intensity;
hence, a 1-minute average MSW is implied.

Note: The track for this depression is essentially that of the Thai
Meteorological Department (TMD), sent by Huang Chunliang. A few
comparisons with India's (IMD) positions are annotated. IMD never
considered this to be more than an ordinary depression (winds not
exceeding 25 kts). Its inclusion here is predicated upon the two 30-kt
MSW estimates in the TMD track.

Note: The above track with 6-hourly positions is a composite based
upon warnings issued by JTWC, the Thai Meteorological Department (TMD)
and the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The TMD and IMD tracks
were compiled and sent to the author by Huang Chunliang (a special thanks
for this effort). JTWC issued 12-hourly warnings beginning at 27/1800
UTC, and the 0600 and 1800 UTC entries are based upon that agency's
warnings. The 0000 and 1200 UTC positions were taken from either IMD's
or TMD's respective tracks, and were chosen to make the best continuity
with JTWC's coordinates. The MSW values for the 0000 and 1200 UTC data
points are basically an interpolation between JTWC's estimates for the
0600 and 1800 UTC times. The track and intensities from 02/1200 UTC
onward were taken from TMD's track.
The TMD and IMD tracks, as sent by Huang Chunliang, follow in their
entirety for those who may wish to make their own comparisons.

The track coordinates as well as the central pressure and 10-minute
average maximum sustained wind estimates were obtained from warnings
issued by Meteo France's Tropical Cyclone Warning Centre on Reunion
Island (MFR), which is the World Meteorological Organization's Regional
Specialised Meteorological Centre for the basin. The 1-minute average
maximum sustained wind estimates were taken from warnings issued by the
Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) of the U. S. Air Force and Navy,
located at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The center position coordinates from
JTWC were compared with those from MFR and annotations made in the

!!!!!! IMPORTANT NOTE - PLEASE READ !!!!!!
To repeat the caveat which is included in the Author's Note
at the end of the cyclone summaries--the tropical cyclone tracks
I prepare are based upon the operational warnings/advisories/
advices/bulletins which are issued by the various tropical cyclone
warning agencies around the world. Users of these tracks should
be aware that they are preliminary and subject to revision during
post-seasonal analyses of the cyclones by the forecasters and
analysts at the several warning centers.
For the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific basins, official tropical
cyclone reports and "best tracks" can be found at the website of
the Tropical Prediction Center/National Hurricane Center:
http://www.nhc.noaa.gov>
The Joint Typhoon Warning Center's website contains links to their
Annual Tropical Cyclone Reports which include that agency's "best
tracks" for tropical cyclones in the Northwest Pacific basin, the
North Indian Ocean, and the Southern Hemisphere:
http://199.10.200.33/jtwc.html>
SPECIAL NOTE: Back issues of the global tropical cyclone summaries
and monthly cyclone track files can be obtained at the following
