Template:Infobox weather event/Storm/doc

Usage

This sub-box generates a meteorological information box specifically targeted towards any general storm. This is the general-use version of Template:Infobox weather event/meteorology, and is the most customizable.

|category= can be set to any valid storm category. It will, in turn, change the header color and text. If a category is set, the header can only be changed by |header=. The header style (which includes the background color) can be changed with |headerstyle=. To identify which scale and/or agency was used, supply the |scale= and/or |agency= parameters, respectively. To identify measurement interval (e.g. 10-minute, 3-minute), supply |interval= with the number of minutes. To override the text below the header entirely, use |subheader=.

If a category is not used, |type= may be used instead to refer to the type of meteorological event. The value of |type= will be used as the header text. Note that this will not show up if |category= is set.

The |basin= parameter can also be used to change the units; set it to atl or epac to switch the default units. To avoid units entirely, you may choose to pass text into the related values (e.g. pass {{convert|142|mph|kmh|abbr=on}}|winds= or |gusts=), but this makes later maintenance difficult, and is not advised.

This subbox relies on the meta-template Template:Infobox weather event/meteorology.
