The track coordinates, central pressure and 1-minute average
maximum sustained wind values were obtained from the operational
forecast/advisories issued by the Tropical Prediction Center/National
Hurricane Center located in Miami, Florida. A 1-minute averaging
period is the standard used by all U. S. civilian and military
warning services for tropical cyclone warnings.
A special thanks to Michael Pitt for sending me the Navy JMV
track for Tropical Storm Arthur.

Note: The MSW given in the 25/0900 UTC advisory was 135 kts. The
discussion stated that at the 0600 UTC synoptic hour, the MSW was likely
140 kts, but since the storm was showing some signs of weakening, the
MSW was reported at 135 kts. The monthly summary for July on NHC's web-
site also reports a peak MSW for Elida of 140 kts.

NORTHWEST PACIFIC (NWP) - North Pacific Ocean West of Longitude 180
Sources of Information
----------------------
The track coordinates and 1-minute average maximum sustained wind
values in general were taken from operational warnings issued by the
Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) of the U. S. Air Force and Navy,
located at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The central pressure and 10-minute
average maximum sustained wind estimates for most systems were obtained
from warnings issued by the Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA), which
is the World Meteorological Organization's Regional Specialised Meteor-
ological Centre for the basin. In a few instances, information from
warnings issued by other Asian warning centers may have been utilized.
The center position coordinates from JMA and other centers were com-
pared with those from JTWC and annotations made in the Remarks column
when the differences in general amounted to 40-50 nm or more.
Michael V. Padua of Naga City in the Philippines, owner of the
Typhoon 2000 website, sends me cyclone tracks based upon warnings
issued by the Japanese Meteorological Agency and the Philippines'
Atmospheric, Geophysical & Astronomical Services Administration
(PAGASA). Also, Huang Chunliang of Fuzhou City, China, sends me
each month tracks obtained from warnings issued by the National
Meteorological Center of China (NMCC), the Central Weather Bureau
of Taiwan (CWBT) and the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO). A very
special thanks to Michael and Chunliang for the assistance they so
reliably provide.

Note: The 10-min avg MSW values given in the table above were taken
completely from PAGASA's warnings. JMA issued bulletins on the system
from 19/0000 UTC through 23/0000 UTC with the MSW estimated at 30 kts
for the entire period. HKO issued warnings on the tropical depression
from 20/0300 UTC through 22/0600 UTC. The estimated maximum 10-min avg
wind was 25 kts for the entire period except 30 kts at 1500 and 1800 UTC
on the 20th. Since there were some significant deltas in the center
coordinates between JTWC, JMA and PAGASA, I have included the coordinates
from JMA and PAGASA below.

Note: Since Typhoon Fung-wong during its latter stages moved within a
few hundred nautical miles of the center of Typhoon Fengshen, the two
systems underwent a Fujiwhara interaction. I have calculated the
azimuthal angle of the center of Fung-wong relative to the center of
Fengshen as well as the distance separating the two cyclonic centers.
The results are tabulated below.

Note: This system was treated as a tropical depression by JMA only,
and briefly by the Thai Meteorological Department. According to Huang
Chunliang, NMCC did refer to the disturbance as a tropical depression
in a morning weather forecast, but no bulletins were issued, something
which NMCC usually does for depressions near the Chinese coast. JTWC
gave the system a fair development potential on 29 July but downgraded
it to poor on the 30th.

Sources of Information
----------------------
The track coordinates as well as the central pressure and 10-minute
average maximum sustained wind estimates were obtained from warnings
issued by the Tropical Cyclone Warning Centres at Nadi, Fiji, and
Wellington, New Zealand. The 1-minute average maximum sustained wind
estimates were taken from warnings issued by the Joint Typhoon Warning
Center (JTWC) of the U. S. Air Force and Navy, located at Pearl Harbor,
Hawaii. The center position coordinates from JTWC were compared with
those from the Southern Hemisphere centres and annotations made in the
Remarks column when the differences in general amounted to 40-50 nm
or more.

Note: The Fiji Tropical Disturbance Summaries did not specify any max-
imum winds associated with this depression. The 25-kt value listed above
was based on an e-mail from Roger Edson in which he stated that, based
upon QuikScat data, he didn't think winds were much higher than 25 kts
on the south (higher pressure gradient) side of the circulation.

!!!!!! IMPORTANT NOTE - PLEASE READ !!!!!!
It has been brought to my attention that I should repeat in the
cyclone tracks file the caveat which is included in the Author's
Note at the end of the cyclone summaries. The tropical cyclone
tracks which I prepare are based upon the operational warnings/
advisories/advices/bulletins from the various tropical cyclone
warning agencies around the world. Users of these tracks should
be aware that they are preliminary and subject to revision during
post-seasonal analyses of the cyclones by the forecasters and
analysts at the several warning centers.
For the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific basins, official tropical
cyclone reports and "best tracks" can be found at the website of
the Tropical Prediction Center/National Hurricane Center:
http://www.nhc.noaa.gov>
The Joint Typhoon Warning Center's website contains links to their
Annual Tropical Cyclone Reports which include that agency's "best
tracks" for tropical cyclones in the Northwest Pacific basin, the
North Indian Ocean, and the Southern Hemisphere:
http://199.10.200.33/jtwc.html>
In the near future I shall contact the other tropical warning
centers to see if I can locate any links to sites where their "best
tracks" might be archived.
