Parameters
Parameter name | Purpose | Example |
---|---|---|
Name | The name of the storm as given by the RSMC, TCWC, or other meteorological organization with jurisdiction over the region where the storm was at peak intensity. (Capitalize every word.) | Super Cyclonic Storm Gonu |
Year | The year the storm formed in. | 2005 |
Basin | The basin the storm formed in. One of "Atl", "EPac", "WPac", "NIO", "SWI", "Aus", "SPac". | |

Image location | Location of picture to use | |
Alt | Alt text for picture, for visually impaired readers; see Wikipedia:Alternative text for images | |
Image name | Caption for picture (in italics) | |
Formed | Date of formation; use {{Start date}} | {{Start date|1996|009|23}} |
Dissipated | Date of dissipation | October 2, 1996 |
1-min winds | Highest 1-minute sustained winds in knots as a pure number. The template will convert appropriately. | 160 |
3-min winds | Highest 3-minute sustained winds in knots as a pure number. The template will convert appropriately. | 160 |
10-min winds | Highest 10-minute sustained winds in knots as a pure number. The template will convert appropriately. | 160 |
Gusts | Gusts in knots as a pure number. The template will convert appropriately. | 160 |
1-min prefix | If defined, adds a qualifying prefix to the 1-minute winds value. | < |
3-min prefix | If defined, adds a qualifying prefix to the 3-minute winds value. | < |
10-min prefix | If defined, adds a qualifying prefix to the 10-minute winds value. | < |
Pregusts | If defined, adds a qualifying prefix to the wind gusts value. | < |
Pressure | Lowest recorded pressure. Expressed as a pure number - value in mbar/hPa. Will convert to appropriate values. | 925 |
Pressurepre | If defined, adds a qualifying prefix to the pressure value. | < |
Pressurepost | If defined adds a note to the pressures | |
Fatalities | Number of people who died. Separate direct and indirect deaths if possible. | 65 (36 direct; 29 indirect) |
Damages | Damages from the storm in millions of year-of-storm US dollars, expressed as a pure number. Template will convert to reasonable values. | 1000 |
Inflated | If defined, applies a standard inflation to the damage figure to bring to current year USD. Numerical value given here gives number of dp to express it to. | 0 |
Damagespre | If used, adds a qualifying prefix to both damages figures. | At least |
Damagespost | If defined, adds a note to the damages figure | costliest [[Atlantic hurricane]] in history |
Areas | List of regions affected | [[Florida]], [[North Carolina]] |
Hurricane season | The season the storm was a part of | [[2005 Atlantic hurricane season]] |
Microformat
The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCalendar microformat, which makes the event details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to a calendar or diary application.
