After observing the intense interest in specific cyclonic storms by
visitors to our site, even long after the departure of these storms from
the scene, I’ve decided to create an archive of storms previously
tracked in our
Tropical
Cyclone, Typhoon & Hurricane Tracking Center.
The Tropical Cyclone, Typhoon & Hurricane Archive is being initiated
on 10 June 2007 with coverage of Super Cyclonic Storm Gonu, one of
the most powerful storms ever to strike the Arabian Peninsula, albeit with
a glancing blow. I would greatly appreciate photos or images of the storm
in progress or of storm damage by anyone who experienced Gonu. If
photos are of good quality, we may include them in the archive with credit
given to the photographer. Firsthand accounts of the storm are also
welcome. Please note that photos and storm information must be your own
or in the public domain.
This archive will be organized in a manner similar to our tracking center, with
storms arranged by date within geographic region. The archive will be
expanded as each new tropical cyclone is tracked. Time permitting, we
will also add prior storms. Creating an archive worthy of viewing by our
visitors will be a significant undertaking for which I ask your support.
If you are interested in tropical cyclones or simply have stories or
photos to share, please contact us. If you are interested in tropical
cyclone forecasting or tracking, we are also seeking useful resources for
our Tropical Cyclone, Typhoon & Hurricane Tracking Center.
I hope this archive will become a valuable resource for those of you have an
interest in tropical meteorology and tropical cyclones as well as those
who simply like to look at the photos or read accounts of individuals who
have experienced the wrath of a tropical cyclone. I personally rode out
Super Typhoon Pamela as an Air Weather Officer in the U.S. Air
Force while on the island of Guam in 1976. I know there are a lot of
interesting stories out there to tell.
