Tropical Cyclones have been named within this basin since 1960, with any tropical depression or Subtropical depression that RSMC La Reunion analyze as having 10-minute sustained windspeeds of at least 65 km/h, 40 mph is named. However unlike other basins RSMC La Reunion do not name tropical depressions, however as they delegate the rights to name tropical cyclones to the Subregional tropical cyclone warning centers in Mauritius or Madagascar depending on whether it is east or west of the 55th meridian east.

Famous quotes containing the words south-west, indian and/or ocean:
“The Westerly Wind asserting his sway from the south-west quarter is often like a monarch gone mad, driving forth with wild imprecations the most faithful of his courtiers to shipwreck, disaster, and death.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“But we, in anchor-watches calm,
The Indian Psyche’s languor won,
And, musing, breathed primeval balm
From Edens ere yet over-run;
Marvelling mild if mortal twice,
Here and hereafter, touch a Paradise.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“The attention of those who frequent the camp-meetings at Eastham is said to be divided between the preaching of the Methodists and the preaching of the billows on the back side of the Cape, for they all stream over here in the course of their stay. I trust that in this case the loudest voice carries it. With what effect may we suppose the ocean to say, “My hearers!” to the multitude on the bank. On that side some John N. Maffit; on this, the Reverend Poluphloisboios Thalassa.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
