Template:Infobox weather event/Current
| Current storm information |
|---|
Usage
This subbox provides current storm information. It should be used for storms which are currently active and tracked by a Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre. It should be used in conjunction with the current/live versions of scale templates.
Place this below (or as a replacement of, particularly on season pages) the /History box. When using the main template (which has its own history box), keep the history parameters off to disable the "Meteorological history" header or use |no-history= to suppress the box.

When there are multiple storms in the same season page and this template is being used, the anchor at the header of the subbox will be incorrectly linked. To change this, set |sectnum= to the section offset of the correct "Current storm information" section. For example, if this storm describes the storm with the third "Current storm information" section on the same page, use |sectnum=3.
