If Cyclone Tauktae is another name for 2021 Gujarat cyclone, then What's the another name for 1998 Gujarat cyclone? Rizosome ( talk) 02:49, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
Tropical cyclones and subtropical cyclones are named by various warning centers to simplify communication between forecasters and the general public regarding forecasts, watches, and warnings.While anyone could do anything they wanted, I've never heard of tropical cyclones being named retroactively for historical cyclones. In the North Atlantic basin, for example, there are several pre-naming cyclones which are just known by descriptive names such as the 1935 Labor Day hurricane (which was referenced in the film Key Largo), the 1915 Galveston hurricane, which may have been the most destructive storm in U.S. history, and the 1938 New England hurricane, AKA the Long Island Express hurricane. -- Jayron 32 11:42, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
This is evidentally some kind of decompression chamber, but is there a more specific identification for this type of craft? I checked several sources discussing Tektite that didn't mention it. – BMacZero ( 🗩) 17:22, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
