1973–74 South Pacific cyclone season

The 1973–74 South Pacific cyclone season was an inactive season. In tropical cyclones, it was an average season, but in strength, it was very inactive, with only two severe tropical cyclones.

Severe Tropical Cyclone Natalie–Lottie
This storm initially formed as Natalie, then moved into the Australian region on the same day. Later, it moved back into the South Pacific and was renamed Lottie. High seas caused the ship Uluilakeba to capsize killing more than 85 people. This makes Lottie one of the deadliest tropical cyclones in region in recent decades.

Tropical Cyclone Rebecca
Rebecca was thought to have had a complex evolution with two low-level circulation centres. It had peak 10-minute sustained windspeeds of 40 kn and a minimum pressure of 988 hPa, before it dissipated during February 28.
