Worldwide Tropical Update: 5 September

#1 Postby senorpepr » Sat Sep 04, 2004 8:18 pm

I don't have access to update the S2K Worldwide Tropical Update webpage at this time, so here are the basics. You can still go to http://tropicalupdates.nhcwx.com/ to utilize the links.

The biggest change (which really is nothing) from the last update was Invest 94W being upgraded to TD 23W. Since then, it's been given the name Sarika.

Anyway, here's the latest storm data for cyclones worldwide.
