Re: Cyclonic Genesis and Track

Dear Carl

Thank you very much. I really appreciated your help. I would like to draw one more attention in the following -

1. How can I draw the line showing the cyclone category in terms of wind speed, pressure and time and finally legend with title? Please find the katrina track attachment (I would like to draw same katrina.) and also if i want to ignore those location where wind speed was less than 34 knots then how can i do that? (For example you can draw the track of Cyclone SIDR in 2007 and also inform me how can I include in the script for the all cyclone in 2007 NI ocean or one/two/three whatever I like)

It'll help if you just modify the previous script and send me back. I really need it. Thanks in advance again. cheers

I can draw the genesis point (find the attached ps)but still don't know how to add the time as the data range from ibtracts is 1842-2011. I have attached few scripts and data for your consideration.
