During 1900, tropical cyclones formed in seven major bodies of water, commonly known as tropical cyclone basins. These systems were tracked by various weather agencies, who issued warnings when they were going to affect land. Around 41 systems formed, but due to a lack of cyclone forecasting at the time, there may have been more.

  1. ^ a b The wind speeds for this tropical cyclone/basin are based on the Saffir Simpson Scale which uses 1-minute sustained winds.
  2. ^ a b c d Only systems that formed either before or on December 31, 2024 are counted in the seasonal totals.
  3. ^ The wind speeds for this tropical cyclone/basin are based on the IMD Scale which uses 3-minute sustained winds.
  4. ^ a b c Only systems that formed either on or after January 1, 2024 are counted in the seasonal totals.
  5. ^ The wind speeds for this tropical cyclone are based on Météo-France, which uses wind gusts.
  6. ^ The sum of the number of systems in each basin will not equal the number shown as the total. This is because when systems move between basins, it creates a discrepancy in the actual number of systems.
