Template documentationThis template essentially defines a total order on each basin's tropical cyclone categories so it makes sense to sort by category. Lower categories get low numbers and higher categories get higher numbers. The single parameter taken in is the category name and the output is a natural number that indicates its place in the hierarchy.
Converts different tropical cyclone intensity category names to sort keys; defaults to 0
