Tropical Cyclone Lin (RSMC Nadi designation: 14F, JTWC Designation: 15P) formed on March 31 as a tropical depression within a monsoon trough to the northwest of Fiji. Over the next few days, the depression moved towards the southeast through the Fijian archipelago until late on April 3, when the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center in Nadi reported that the depression had intensified into a category one cyclone, and named it Lin. The JTWC did not start issuing warnings on Lin until the next day as it was approaching its 10-minute peak windspeeds of 110 km/h (70 mph) and 1-minute peak windspeeds of 100 km/h (65 mph). Cyclone Lin then reached its peak windspeeds early on April 5 as it passed directly over Tonga. Later that day as it approached the edge of RSMC Nadi`s area of responsibility Lin started to go through an extratropical transition with the JTWC issuing their last advisory on it. As it crossed into TCWC Wellington`s area of responsibility the cyclone was declared extratropical, however TCWC Wellington kept issuing warnings on Lin until late on April 8.
