was last monitored on June 15. Storm names A tropical disturbance is named when it reaches moderate tropical storm strength. If a tropical disturbance reaches moderate tropical storm status west of 55°E, then the Sub-regional Tropical Cyclone Advisory Centre in Madagascar assigns the appropriate name to the storm; between 55°E and 90°E, the Sub-regional Tropical Cyclone Advisory Centre in Mauritius is responsible for the same task. A new annual list is used every year so no names are retired. Season effects This table lists all of the tropical cyclones and subtropical cyclones that were monitored during the 2001–2002 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season. Information on their intensity, duration, name, and areas affected, primarily comes from RSMC La Reunion. Death and damage reports come from either press reports or the relevant national disaster management agency while the damage totals are given in 2002 USD. |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || Madagascar || || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || Mauritius, Réunion || || || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || Madagascar, ComorosMauritius, Réunion || Unknown || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || Madagascar, Mauritius, Réunion || Unknown || || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || Madagascar || Unknown || || |- | || || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || bgcolor=#| || None || None || None || |- See also List of Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone seasons Tropical cyclones in 2001, 2002 Atlantic hurricane
