Below is a timeline of the 2007 North Indian Ocean cyclone season, documenting major events with regards to tropical cyclone formation, strengthening, weakening, landfall, extratropical transition, as well as dissipation. The 2007 North Indian Ocean cyclone season was an ongoing event in the annual cycle of tropical cyclone formation.
For convenience and clarity, in the timeline below, all landfalls are bolded. Where the exact time of an event is unclear, c. is used to denote the approximate time.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) is the official Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre in this basin, while the Joint Typhoon Warning Center releases unofficial advisories.
Storms tracked by the JTWC are referred to numerically to avoid confusion, as the JTWC sometimes recognises a storm at a different intensity compared to the IMD.
The graphical bar above gives a brief overview of storm activity during the season, and a storm's maximum intensity category in terms of wind speed is included as a colour bar. This is given by the IMD's values of maximum 10-minute sustained winds. The colour scheme is detailed to the right.

“I meet him at every turn. He is more alive than ever he was. He has earned immortality. He is not confined to North Elba nor to Kansas. He is no longer working in secret. He works in public, and in the clearest light that shines on this land.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Well, that’s a nice social problem—an Indian in the family.”
—Howard Estabrook (1884–1978)
“The seasick passenger on an ocean liner detests the good sailor who stalks past him 265 times a day grandly smoking a large, greasy cigar. In precisely the same way the democrat hates the man who is having a better time in the world. This is the origin of democracy. It is also the origin of Puritanism.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The landscape was clothed in a mild and quiet light, in which the woods and fences checkered and partitioned it with new regularity, and rough and uneven fields stretched away with lawn-like smoothness to the horizon, and the clouds, finely distinct and picturesque, seemed a fit drapery to hang over fairyland. The world seemed decked for some holiday or prouder pageantry ... like a green lane into a country maze, at the season when fruit-trees are in blossom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
