1982–83 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season

The 1982–83 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season is tied with the 2010–2011 season as the least active cyclone season on record, characterized by only six named storms, with three of them – Arilisy, Clera, and Fely – failing to intensify beyond tropical depression status. No storms reached tropical cyclone status, according to the official warning agency for the basin, Météo-France, although the two strongest storms – Bemany and Elinah – peaked just below that intensity.
