The HDP index was later modified to further include tropical storms, that is, all wind speeds of at least 34 knots (≥ 63 km/h; 39 mph), [4] to become the accumulated cyclone energy index. [6] The highest ACE calculated for a single tropical cyclone on record worldwide is 87.01, set by Cyclone Freddy in 2023. [7]

Highest Accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index for a season: 570 during the 1997 Pacific typhoon season: January 19, 1997 – December 23, 1997: Northwest Pacific Ocean [14] Highest number of rapid intensification cycles for a tropical cyclone: 7: February 4, 2023 – March 14, 2023: Cyclone Freddy in the Australian region and South-West Indian ...
While the number of tropical storms and hurricanes that form each year is important to track, experts say that the Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index is a more reliable way to quantify the ...
Another way to measure the hurricane season is to analyze each storm's power output, which meteorologists refer to as accumulated cyclone energy (ACE). The ACE of an entire hurricane season is ...
Using a combination of historical data and an index known as Accumulated Cyclone Energy, researchers say there’s an 82% chance this year that Georgia will be impacted by a named storm. That’s ...
The accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) index for the 2023 (seven basins combined), as calculated by Colorado State University (CSU) was 857.4 units, which was above the 1991–2020 mean of 770.2 units. [3] [4] The most active basin in the year was the North Atlantic Ocean, which had 20 named systems.
A very intense tropical cyclone is the highest category on the South-West Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclone scale, and has winds of over 115 knots (213 km/h; 132 mph). At the tenth RA I tropical cyclone committee held during 1991, it was recommended that the intensity classifications be changed ahead of the 1993–94 tropical cyclone season.
