1962-63 Southwest Indian Ocean cyclone season

The 1962-63 Southwest Indian Ocean cyclone season is the first season officially listed as being reliable. The official bounds of the season ran from October 1 to April 30, and the storms listed here are done so based off observations. Therefore, the data is incomplete, and relies on reports from significantly populated areas, or ships that rode out the storms as a result. Other storms have their peak intensities estimated, using the wind-pressure relationship, or the damage they caused if they made landfall in a populated area.
