elioe's tracks

I made four tracks of Hurricane Sam, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made three more track after cyclogenesis. Additionally, within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were four instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely. As of this analysis, best track positions are available September 19, 00Z thru October 5, 06Z, and as such, position comparisons are possible only for this timespan. Since I give only SSHS categories in my tracks, I don't calculate intensity errors in units of speed, but in categories. For this purpose, I define tropical or subtropical storms as "Category 0", tropical or subtropical depressions as "Category -1" and non-existence of a tropical or subtropical cyclone as "Category -2". In the four tracks (made before operationally recognized cyclogenesis), formation times ranged between September 23, 00Z and September 30, 00Z. Average was September 27, 03Z and median was September 27, 18Z. In the eight c

I made five tracks of Tropical Storm Rose, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made one more track after cyclogenesis. Additionally, within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were three instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely.

I made eight tracks of Tropical Storm Peter, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone, from seven model cycles. In one instance, I made two tracks from one model cycle, and those tracks didn't overlap in time. Hereafter, those two tracks will be considered as one. I made one more track after cyclogenesis. Additionally, within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were two instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely. As of this analysis, best track positions are available September 13, 12Z thru September 29, 18Z, and as such, position comparisons are possible only for this timespan.

I made four tracks of Tropical Storm Odette, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made one more track after cyclogenesis. Additionally, within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were four instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely. As of this analysis, best track positions are available September 14, 00Z thru September 26, 00Z, and as such, position comparisons are possible only for this timespan. Since I give only SSHS categories in my tracks, I don't calculate intensity errors in units of speed, but in categories. For this purpose, I define tropical or subtropical storms as "Category 0", tropical or subtropical depressions as "Category -1" and non-existence of a tropical or subtropical cyclone as "Category -2". In the four tracks (made before operationally recognized cyclogenesis), original formation times ranged between September 16, 12Z and September 17, 18Z. Average was September 17, 06Z and median was September 17, 09Z.

I made one track of Hurricane Nicholas, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made two more tracks after cyclogenesis. Additionally, within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were four instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely. As of this analysis, best track positions are available September 10, 12Z thru September 17, 18Z, and as such, position comparisons are possible only for this timespan. Since I give only SSHS categories in my tracks, I don't calculate intensity errors in units of speed, but in categories. For this purpose, I define tropical or subtropical storms as "Category 0", tropical or subtropical depressions as "Category -1" and non-existence of a tropical or subtropical cyclone as "Category -2". In the one track (made before operationally recognized cyclogenesis), range, average and median of formation time was September 12, 18Z. In the five cases (1 track, before the tracks and data agreed, that Category 1 woul

I made no tracks of Tropical Storm Mindy, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made no tracks after cyclogenesis. Within 504 hours of cyclogenesis, there were five instances, when I missed cyclogenesis entirely.

Range, average and median of formation time are not applicable. In the five cases (0 tracks, before the tracks and data agreed, that tropical storm would remain the peak intensity, and 5 comple

I made two tracks of Hurricane Larry, before it was assessed as a tropical cyclone. I made three more tracks after cyclogenesis.
