Re: Question about the Cyclone Monica reverts.
While I understand you're just reverting them due to policy, I have a question. Why is only half the information taken from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, and the other half taken from the Australian Weather Bureau (who actually manage the storm)? In my opinion that is very inconsistent. It should either all be from JTWC (meaning the mb is dropped to 879), or all from the bureau (meaning the winds are raised because having that much of a difference is ridiculous when compared to Hurricane Camille and Typhoon Tip, who both apparently had LOWER gusts than Cyclone Monica). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 9287392639862s (talk • contribs) 10:18, 29 January 2007 (UTC).
 * Normally, for non-NHC/CPHC storms, we include 1-minute wind info from the JTWC, and 10-minute wind info (as well as pressure) from the RSMC. However, Australia is different in the way that they rank their storm strength on gusts, hence it's gusts that's listed, not 1-minute or 10-minute winds. If you have a look at any recent typhoon article (from when the JMA took over naming responsibility), you'll see that there's both 1-min and 10-min info listed. It's not a case of half the info from each side, it just has to do with how the BOM handle their storms. – Chacor 10:32, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, I suppose if the BOM now issues reports, we'll be using their wind info (likely 10-minute, as 1-minute is used more as a general guide against U.S. storms as analysed by a U.S. agency). – Chacor 14:04, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
