Talk:2006 Pacific typhoon season

Seasonal summary
As you might have noticed, Momoko has added the JMA's seasonal summary [as of 4 November 2006] as a source for many updated pressures and winds. Here's a rundown of the season for anyone interested:

 * There must be a mistake in there; there's no way NRL said that Sonamu's minimum pressure was 911 mbar! —Cuivi é nen 21:29, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I have to agree with Civinenen, 898 for Yagi and Cimaron 900 for Ioke, 904 for Chanchu and Durian seem awfully off. And how does a tropical storm get 911mbar?Mitchazenia (8000+edits) 21:34, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * 991, sorry, my error there. Otherwise all are correct. Values were taken from the ATCF archives on NRL. – Chacor 23:52, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Not a problem. Mitchzenia, the average surface pressure is lower in the Northwest Pacific than the North Atlantic, so storms regularly achieve lower pressures there. 898 mbar is not remarkable for a WPac storm. —Cuivi é nen 02:40, 2 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Also, looking at those death tolls, Kaemi and Prapiroon should probably have articles if we can get enough data together. —Cuivi é nen 02:43, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Table updated to add death toll. – Chacor 00:27, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Re-updated using China yearly report. – Chacor 15:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Updated. – Chacor 14:17, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Updated to take Durian's latest figures into account - 801 dead 778 missing. – Chacor 10:25, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Durian toll now 819 dead. – Chacor 14:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Non-NMHS TD?
Should this be in the article? Since it wasn't monitored by a RSMC or NMHS, or by the JTWC, it's not official for any particular area, and it didn't have any impact whatsoever. --Core desat 08:05, 3 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I don't think it should be included, although this brings up the question of what to include and what not to include. Hurricanehink ( talk ) 14:59, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed, though the TCOP does say that systems monitored by the NMHSes (CMA, KMA, TMD, Singapore, etc.) are considered official for those areas, so they may merit inclusion. --Core desat 07:45, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Interesting Cimaron tidbit
Just as a point of interest, it's possible that Cimaron had surpassed Tip's record as strongest typhoon ever recorded. At the time, the SSD ([]) was giving Cimaron unofficial Dvorak numbers of T8.0. This equates to a 858 mbar storm with 196 mph winds. If they still performed recons in the West Pacific, we would know for sure, but unfortunately they go by sattelites only. Cainer91 05:02, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Not correct. The SSD/SAB never gave Cimaron anything higher than a T7.5. It was in the remarks for the T7.5 bulletin that they mentioned the possibility of T8.0. But 1) the SSD is not official, 2) there are multiple satellite agencies and no one else mentioned T8.0 and 3) the T8.0 isn't even confirmed, only a "possibility". – Chacor 06:15, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * True enough. I still thought it was pretty surprising that they considered that it could of been so powerful. It was a powerful storm, that's for sure. Cainer91 19:39, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

A new article for Typhoon Cimaron
Typhoon Cimaron was an incredible typhoon. Imagine that storm rapidly intensified, lowering its pressure by a steep 65hPa in just about a day. Secondly, if the former Typhoon Xangsane wreaked havoc in Manila and its suburban environs, then this one swirled in Northern Luzon, causing similar effects as the other did. So, to have more info about this storm, we are to make an article for this one. Please name it Typhoon Cimaron(2006). Pika ten10 —Preceding comment was added at 02:58, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

This one is labeled as a Category-5 typhoon, thus designating it a major storm. All major storms must have an article in this encyclopedia since they did significant damage to the affected areas. Pika ten10
 * Be bold and make it! Cimaron is actually relatively minor compared to some storms without articles, its a loooong slow process.--Nilfanion (talk) 10:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

You know I'm just soliciting for your opinion as well as your help for this article. If you have seen my statement "...we are to make an article..." earlier, then you may have understood my point better. I can't do the article myself, so please pardon me... User:Pika ten10 —Preceding comment was added at 09:34, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Track maps
I noticed Kaemi's section differed from the track map, and realized the whole season's maps are out of date. I'm working on updates for these maps. 2005 seems to have the same issue. Potapych (talk) 20:38, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

All the weary dead links have been removed
As part of the drive to eliminate backlogs, this article showed up prominently in several months due to its 30 dead links. I checked the first 15, of which none were at the Internet Wayback Machine. After that frustration, all the dead links had to go. I see now why this is a Start class article, but to be fair, a couple of its main contributors are no longer part of the project.

What do you think?
Hi and what do you think? I've made decent amount of changes to this article and my goal is to make this article bump up from a "Start" class to a "GA" (or at least a "C" and I'm happy about that already), especially how it says "High" in importance. If the article does not deserve a GA yet, what should I do to make it much better. If one of them is sources, where could I go? Thanks. Typhoon2013 (talk) 09:39, 11 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Compare the article to 2002 Pacific typhoon season, and you'll see what work needs to be done. For starters, make sure every section is sourced, and that all information is covered by those sources. Remove any references to the meanings of names in the sections. Make sure you use JMA data when discussing storm histories, supplemented by other warning centers when appropriate (JTWC/PAGASA mostly). All storms need to have their impacts researched. Most of the impact is outdated or missing info from other countries - Ewiniar's section doesn't even mention the thousands killed in North Korea! The article can't be rated higher than Start class at the moment, given the sheer amount of info missing. But don't let that dissuade you. Getting season articles to GA is tough, but not impossible. And it's certainly easier when most of the articles in the season are already GA. Hurricanehink mobile (talk) 17:15, 11 November 2016 (UTC)
