2020 South-West Indian Ocean Hall of Fame Nominees[]
Like before, we'll need to exclude one of these storms, since we got 11, but need 10 for nominating, so let's vote to exclude one of these until next year:

- Cyclone Gervaise (1975)
- Tropical Storm Domoina (1984)

2020 South-West Indian Ocean Hall of Fame Inductees[]
Luckily, there's no need for a tiebreaker vote this time, these 5 storms got 3 or more votes:
My top 3 personal most notable among these are:
- Cyclone Idai
- Tropical Storm Domoina
- Cyclone Dineo
While Dineo's death toll was slightly higher than Domoina's, Domoina's 200 million in damage at that time made it the worst flood disaster across South Africa and Swaziland in over 100 years. Ryan1000 02:26, January 13, 2020 (UTC)
