 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox weather event/FWC. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
This subbox provides a meteorological data subbox based on the Fleet Weather Center scale, a historical scale which was predecessor to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center's scale, which itself is based on the Saffir–Simpson scale (except all tropical cyclone categories are merged into one "Typhoon" category). The |basin= parameter controls which type of cyclone is shown.
This subbox relies on the meta-template Template:Infobox weather event/SSHWS, which in turn relies on the meta-template Template:Infobox weather event/scale.

TemplateData
A subbox for displaying meteorological information for a storm according to data from the Fleet Weather Center (FWC). Should be used adjacent to an 'Infobox weather event' template, and before an 'Infobox weather event/Footer' template.
| Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Child display? | child | Whether this is a child box or not. Use `yes`, unless you're using this box standalone.
| Boolean | optional |
| Body style | bodystyle | Custom CSS for the box
| String | optional |
| 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.
| Number | suggested |
| Maximum winds prefix | winds-prefix | Prefix for the maximum sustained winds. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'.
| 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.
| Number | suggested |
| Maximum gusts prefix | gusts-prefix | Prefix for the maximum wind gusts. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'.
| 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).
| Number | suggested |
| Lowest pressure prefix | pressure-prefix | Prefix for the pressure. Use this to add approximation symbols, such as '~', '<', or '>'.
| 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.
| Boolean | optional |
