From the 2020–21 season, the three TCWCs were unified into one single TCWC which still monitors all tropical cyclones that form within the Australian region, including any within the areas of responsibility of TCWC Jakarta or TCWC Port Moresby. [4] Later in 2021, the Australian tropical cyclone warning centre was officially named as TCWC ...

[5] As a result of both the 2003 and 2004 outlooks being successful, the predictions became an operational product during 2005. [6]
The first dynamical hurricane track forecast model, the Sanders Barotropic Tropical Cyclone Track Prediction Model (SANBAR), [9] was introduced in 1970 and was used by the National Hurricane Center as part of its operational track guidance through 1989. It was based on a simplified set of atmospheric dynamical equations (the equivalent ...
As peak hurricane season approaches, the organization that tracks them is making changes to how it visually maps storm forecasts. To provide more detailed predictions, the National Hurricane ...
Australia's most costly natural disaster in dollar terms, as of 1999, was a severe hail storm over Sydney on 14 April 1999. Hail up to almost the size of cricket balls – 8 to 9 centimetres (3.1 to 3.5 in) circumference – fell in a damage path that extended from Bundeena in the south to Darling Point in the north, and from Sydenham in the ...
