thread_title:  test of fallthrough 

message: What are the STS and strong colors?  In the track maps there are just 7 colors: depression, storm, cat1, cat2, cat3, cat4, cat5.  I fear that adding other colors or finer levels of distinction will only add confusion by diluting the color associations.  There are about 7 different types of gale (35-70 mph winds) but we don't have different colors for each of them. — jdorje (talk) 23:11, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The West Pacific uses a severe tropical storm designation (48-63 kts). Presumably it would be used in ; there is no need for it in the track map.--Nilfanion 23:48, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd really like to keep things simple for the color.  Calling a storm a Severe Tropical Storm is a good thing but if the track map doesn't show it we shouldn't have a separate color for it.  It should just use the TS or Cat1 color, depending on the wind speed. — jdorje (talk) 04:50, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  weird colors 

message: Really outdated. You should change the wind speeds of the major hurricane categories. Category 4 needs its maximum wind speed upped by one. The Category 3 needs its maximum wind speed downed by one. The Category 5 needs its minimum winds upped by one. The Category 4 needs its minimum wind speed downed by obe.

replies: text: I don't see "sublow" at Tropical cyclone scales or Saffir–Simpson scale. Is there a source for the terms used in this template? – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:22, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

message: Replace the entire page with:

Module:Tropical cyclone categories has existed for a while and is fully backwards-compatible with this template; see Module:Tropical cyclone categories#Compatibility. The module centralizes all tropical cyclone categories into one set of data, which should standardize all existing templates which are based on tropical cyclone categories.

message: The scope of this template has expanded from tropical cyclone categories to include categories for more storm types (including tornadoes and winter storms). Please change the module invocation from #invoke:Tropical cyclone categories to #invoke:Storm categories. The former module now only exists as a temporary redirect following the module move.

message: Hi, I checked the color contrast of each of the colors listed here, and all but one – the purple color #C464D9 – passed both the WCAG AA and AAA levels. It is required to pass AA, and encouraged to pass AAA. Using the tool, I found a slightly different shade that will pass both levels: #CA73DD. Can this be updated?

thread_title:  Adjust purple color to conform to contrast standards 

message: Yesterday the colors were normal, whether traditional but now. I noticed that they changed something strange. They changed everything for some 'freak colors' that the truth was, it was me or I just visited the opposite encyclopedia. I found out it was true. Is it just a temporary test? Or will it stay permanently? МОДОКАУ  04:48, 25 February 2023 (UTC)

message: Maybe we could make the colors more in line with the ones used on the YouTube channel “Force Thirteen“ by making tropical storms green, category fours scarlet and category fives raspberry-magenta? Who knows. Corgimations (talk) 08:11, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
