Odoneru hurricane: Difference between revisions

Odoneru Hurricanes are monitored by two regional command centers, Hurricane Regional Command North (HRCN) in Martilles, Burgundie and Hurricane Regional Command South (HRCS), in PLACE, Pauldustllah. Previous to the creation of the modern iteration of these commands in 1973, each nation tracked hurricanes on their own, to varying success. Burgundie, Kistan, and Kuhlfros through the Levantine Union created a joint monitoring mechanism in the 1940s but the methods and technologies were insufficient to be very effective. Pauldustllah and Kiravia operated independent of any other nation but both had agreements at various times to sell the Levantine Union any hurricane related information. The processes for information transfer were untimely, often miscommunicated, and sometimes counter to the foreign policy of the nations involved and in 1972 the Odoneru basin nations (that matter at least), developed the northern and southern joint command program. Implemented in 1973 the system is estimated to save the participating nations hundreds of civilian lives and $billions in recovery spending each year.

=== Response and Recovery ===

Often in part because of the threat of hurricanes, many coastal regions had sparse population between major ports until the advent of automobile tourism; therefore, the most severe portions of hurricanes striking the coast may have gone unmeasured in some instances. The combined effects of ship destruction and remote landfall severely limit the number of intense hurricanes in the official record before the era of hurricane reconnaissance aircraft and satellite meteorology, primarily driven by the Burgundian Maritime Navigation Administration. Although the record shows a distinct increase in the number and strength of intense hurricanes, therefore, experts regard the early data as suspect. An Administration report in 1997 estimated an undercount bias of zero to six tropical cyclones per year between 1851 and 1885 and zero to four per year between 1886 and 1910. These undercounts roughly take into account the typical size of tropical cyclones, the density of shipping tracks over the Odoneru basin, and the amount of populated coastline.

Although more uncommon since 1995, few above-normal hurricane seasons occurred during 1970–1994. Destructive hurricanes struck frequently from 1926–1960, including many major Burgundian hurricanes. Twenty-one Odoneru tropical storms formed in 1933, a record only recently exceeded in 1994, which saw 24 storms. Tropical hurricanes occurred infrequently during the seasons of 1900–1925; however, many intense storms formed during 1870–1899. During the 1887 season, 19 tropical storms formed, of which a record 4 occurred after November 1 and 11 strengthened into hurricanes. Few hurricanes occurred in the 1840s to 1860s; however, many struck in the early 19th century, including an 1821 storm that made a direct hit on Kartika. Some historical weather experts say these storms may have been as high as Category 4 in strength.

These active hurricane seasons predated satellite coverage of the Odoneru basin. Before the satellite era began in 1960, tropical storms or hurricanes went undetected unless a reconnaissance aircraft encountered one, a ship reported a voyage through the storm, or a storm landed in a populated area. The official record, therefore, could miss storms in which no ship experienced gale-force winds, recognized it as a tropical storm (as opposed to a high-latitude extra-tropical cyclone, a tropical wave, or a brief squall), returned to port, and reported the experience.
