Template:Infobox weather event/Aus/doc

Usage

This is a meta-template used by tropical cyclone scale subboxes for Template:Infobox weather event. It is used to standardize all Bureau of Meteorology scale-based subboxes. This automatically provides the category, meaning the only parameters that need to be provided are |agency= for the issuing agency.

For examples, see Template:Infobox weather event/BoM or Template:Infobox weather event/BMKG.

Tropical low	Category 1 tropical cyclone	Category 2 tropical cyclone	Category 3 severe tropical cyclone	Category 4 severe tropical cyclone	Category 5 severe tropical cyclone
<33 kn, <61 km/h, <37 mph	34–47 kn, 62–87 km/h, 39–54 mph	48–64 kn, 88–118 km/h, 55–73 mph	65–85 kn, 120–157 km/h, 74–97 mph	86–106 kn, 159–196 km/h, 98–122 mph	>107 kn, >198 km/h, >123 mph

TemplateData

A subbox for displaying meteorological information for a storm according to data from a given agency. Should be used adjacent to an 'Infobox weather event' template, and before an 'Infobox weather event/Footer' template.

Template parameters

This template prefers block formatting of parameters.

Parameter		Description	Type	Status
Child display?	child	Whether this is a child box or not. Use `yes`, unless you're using this box standalone. Default yes Example yes	Boolean	optional
Body style	bodystyle	Custom CSS for the box Default border-collapse: collapse	String	optional
Basin	basin	Basin of the storm. Controls the name of the category, if the category supports basin-specific names. Suggested values atl epac satl wpac	String	optional
Header text	header	Header text to show. Overrides category name if provided.	Content	optional
Header style	header-style	Controls the style of the subbox header. This header usually includes the category of the storm or the storm type, if a category is not applicable. Default font-size: 100%; background-color: #{​{Storm colour|{​{​{category|}​}​}​}​}	String	optional
Agency	agency	Agency issuing the meteorological data. If the agency uses multiple scales, or uses a scale that is used by multiple agencies, consider also supplying "scale". Example [[National Weather Service|NWS]]	Content	suggested
Scale	scale	Scale used to quantify the meteorological data. If the scale is used by multiple agencies, consider supplying "agency". Example [[Saffir–Simpson scale|SSHWS]]	Content	suggested
Maximum sustained winds	winds	The maximum sustained winds of a given storm. Not to be confused with maximum wind gusts (provided with "gusts"). Supply value in knots. Example 124	Number	suggested
Maximum winds prefix	winds-prefix	Prefix for the maximum sustained winds. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Maximum winds suffix	winds-suffix	Suffix for the maximum sustained winds. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Maximum wind gust	gusts	The maximum wind gust of a given storm. Not to be confused with maximum sustained winds (provided with "winds"). Supply value in knots. Example 164	Number	suggested
Maximum gusts prefix	gusts-prefix	Prefix for the maximum wind gusts. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Maximum gusts suffix	gusts-suffix	Suffix for the maximum wind gusts. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Beaufort scale	beaufort-scale beaufort scale	The maximum sustained winds on the Beaufort scale. Rarely used except for historical storms; consider using "winds" instead.	Number	optional
Lowest pressure	pressure	Lowest pressure, usually measured near the storm's center. Supply value in hectopascals/millibars (hPa/mbar). Example 975	Number	suggested
Lowest pressure prefix	pressure-prefix	Prefix for the pressure. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'. Example ~	String	optional
Lowest pressure suffix	pressure-suffix	Suffix for the lowest pressure. Use this to add references, footnotes, or other content.	Content	optional
Category only?	categoryonly	Only return the category of this storm as a string. Useful if you only want the category of a storm based on meteorological data, but not the actual box itself. Default no	Boolean	optional
