  • Intense Tropical Cyclone Gamede was among the wettest tropical cyclones on record, dropping more than 5.5 m (18 ft) of rain in a nine-day period on Réunion island in the southwest Indian Ocean. The seventh named storm of the 2006–07 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season, Gamede formed south of Diego Garcia on February 19 as a tropical disturbance. It tracked generally westward and steadily intensified, reaching tropical cyclone status on February 23. For two days, Gamede stalled northwest of the Mascarene Islands as an intense tropical cyclone, during which it reached 10 minute maximum sustained winds of winds of 165 km/h (105 mph), according to the Météo-France meteorological office in Réunion (MFR). The American-based Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) estimated peak 1 minute winds of 195 km/h (120 mph), equivalent to a Category 3 on the Saffir–Simpson scale. For four days, Gamede remained within 400 km (250 mi) of Réunion before accelerating southward. On March 2, Gamede transitioned into an extratropical cyclone to the southeast of Madagascar. The MFR tracked the storm for four more days. Cyclone Gamede first passed near St. Brandon, where its 160 km/h (99 mph) wind gusts damaged a few windows. When the storm stalled for a few days, it resulted in a prolonged period of heavy rainfall and high tides for the Mascarene Islands. A pluviometer at Commerson Crater recorded worldwide record rainfall amounts over a period of 3–9 days, with a total of 5512 mm (217 in). Only Cyclone Hyacinthe in 1980 had a higher recorded rainfall total. The deluge from Gamede caused flooding damage across Réunion, washing out a bridge in the southern portion of the island. Monetary damage on Réunion was estimated at over €165 million (US$120 million). Two people each were killed on Réunion and nearby Mauritius. The storm's outer rainbands affected southeastern Madagascar, becoming the fourth tropical cyclone to affect the country in two months. Later, high waves from Gamede flooded coastal portions of the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal. (en)
  • Zyklon Gamede war einer der . Er regnete auf Réunion in einem Zeitraum von neun Tagen rund 5500 mm Niederschlag ab – das entspricht ungefähr der zehnfachen Jahresniederschlagsmenge in der Oberrheinischen Tiefebene. Der siebte tropische Wirbelsturm der Zyklonsaison im Südwestindik 2006–2007 bildete sich am 20. Februar südlich von Diego Garcia als tropisches Tiefdruckgebiet. Dieses wanderte generell nach Westen und intensivierte sich dabei stetig. Gamede zog als ausgedehnter, aber nur mäßig starker Zyklon nordwestlich an Mauritius und Réunion vorbei. Der Wirbelsturm verblieb vier Tage lang innerhalb eines Radius von 400 km um Réunion, bevor er nach Süden beschleunigte und am 3. März südlich von Madagaskar zu einem außertropischen Wirbelsturm wurde. Gamede brach für den Zeitraum zwischen drei und neun Tagen die Niederschlagsrekorde, die durch den tropischen Zyklon Hyacinthe 27 Jahre zuvor gesetzt worden waren. Der Regen verursachte auf Réunion mäßige Schäden. Eine Brücke im Süden der Insel stürzte im Zusammenhang mit dem Sturm ein, und eine Frau wurde von Flutwasser mitgerissen und nicht mehr aufgefunden. Auf Mauritius wurden zwei Personen getötet. Der Name Gamede wurde der World Meteorological Organization von Südafrika vorgeschlagen. (de)
  • Gamède est un cyclone tropical qui fut en activité dans le Sud-Ouest de l'océan Indien à la fin du mois de février 2007. Il fut le plus destructeur des quatre années précédentes pour les Mascareignes. (fr)
  • O ciclone tropical intenso Gamede (designação do JTWC: 15S; também conhecido simplesmente como ciclone Gamede) está entre os da história, causando mais de 5,5 m (5.500 mm) de chuva num período de move dias na ilha de Reunião no Oceano Índico sudoeste. Sendo o sétimo sistema tropical nomeado da temporada de ciclones no Oceano Índico sudoeste de 2006-07, Gamede formou-se em 20 de Fevereiro como uma depressão tropical ao sul de Diego Garcia. O sistema seguiu para oeste e intensificou-se continuamente, passando a noroeste de Maurício e Reunião como um grande, mas "moderadamente" um ciclone tropical intenso. Por quatro dias, o ciclone permaneceu a cerca de 400 km de Reunião antes de começar a seguir mais velozmente para o sul e em 3 de Março, Gamede tornou-se um ciclone extratropical ao sul de Madagascar. Gamede quebrou recordes conseguidos 27 anos antes pelo quanto à precipitação acumulada entre três e nove dias. As chuvas torrenciais causaram danos moderados em Reunião e na região sul da ilha, uma ponte foi destruída pela enxurrada. Duas pessoas morreram em Maurício e outras duas em Reunião. O nome Gamede foi submetida à lista de nomes de ciclones tropicais, gerenciada pela Organização Meteorológica Mundial pela África do Sul. (pt)
