The 2014–2015 cyclone season in the Southwest Indies officially began on November 15, 2014 and will end on April 30, 2015 , with the exception of Mauritius and the Seychelles , where it will not end until May 15, 2015 . These dates conventionally limit the time of the meteorological year of the southern hemisphere during which most tropical cyclones form in the southwestern Ind . The first tropical system formed on November 16, 2014, one day after the start of the season.
The tropical cyclones in this basin are monitored by the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC) in Reunion Island , France . Météo-France's area of responsibility includes the Indian Ocean south of the equator and west of 90 ° east longitude . Tropical cyclones in this area are called cyclones. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) in Honolulu also monitors the weather in this sea area; it issues storm warnings primarily aimed at United States Armed Forces facilities in the Indian Ocean.

Time overview of the season
Storm names
Tropical cyclones are given a name in this basin, provided they reach at least the strength of a moderate tropical storm. When a system reaches this strength west of 55 ° east longitude, the name is assigned by the Sub-Regional Tropical Cyclone Advisory Center in Madagascar ; If the storm reaches this strength between 55 ° and 90 ° east longitude, the Regional Tropical Cyclone Advisory Center in Mauritius is responsible for the naming. New lists of names are issued every year, so no names are removed from the list of tropical cyclone names. The list of names for the cyclone season in the 2014-2015 Southwest Indicator was announced by Météo-France in September 2012.
