stormarticle
Storm article containing the Current storm information section for the system. Do not include the #Current_storm_information anchor in the link; it is already added by the template. If absent, template assumes that the section is in the current article.

For the second currently active storm, from top to bottom, set sectnum=2; for the third, sectnum=3, and so on. If absent, the template assumes there is only one #Current_storm_information anchor in the article.
