Tropical Cyclone Gelie
● Data reliability: Generally reliable——Aircraft entered typhoons for in situ measurements, but satellites were not yet widespread: tracks are generally accurate, while intensities may be biased, with weaker cyclones potentially going unrecorded from 1950 until the advent of satellite coverage.
Gelie at 1979-03-07 14:00:00 (BeijingTime) 在South Indian Ocean首次被记录, peak intensity 为Tropical Disturbance, max wind 约 15.4 m/s (1 分钟平均) , minimum central pressure 997 hPa, at 1979-03-14 14:00:00前后结束, total 记录 29 track points (6 h一个) .

Data sources: NOAA National Environmental Information Center IBTrACS v04r01 (Knapp et al., 2010), code 1979066S13068 / SH181979. There is no official Chinese name for this system, so the original English name is used. Intensity categories follow the classifications of the local agency in the relevant sea region, converted from 1-minute sustained winds using the WMO factor, and are for reference only.
