[2] The third disturbance of the 2023–24 South Pacific cyclone season and the first named storm and severe tropical cyclone of the 2023–24 Australian region cyclone season, Jasper was first noted as an area of low pressure located in the South Pacific Ocean, which was initially ...
Cyclone Jasper (2023) – a long-lived and powerful Category 5 severe tropical cyclone which impacted the Solomon Islands and Far North Queensland with torrential rain. In the wake of the 2023–24 season, the name Jasper was retired from the rotating lists of storm names in the Australian region.
This is a list of the wettest tropical cyclones, listing all tropical cyclones known to have dropped at least 1,270 millimetres (50 in) of precipitation on a single location. Data is most complete for Australia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Japan, Hong Kong , Mexico, Yap , Chuuk , and the United States, with fragmentary data available for other ...
The Australian region tropical cyclone basin is located to the south of the Equator between 90°E and 160°E. [1] The basin is officially monitored by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, Papua New Guinea's National Weather Service as well as Indonesia's Badan Meteorologi Klimatologi dan Geofisika.

^α Although Luis produced the highest confirmed wave height for a tropical cyclone, it is possible that Hurricane Ivan produced a wave measuring 131 feet (40 m). [41]^β It is believed that reconnaissance aircraft overestimated wind speeds in tropical cyclones from the 1940s to the 1960s, and data from this time period is generally considered unreliable.
