From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cyclone Percy was the seventh named storm of the 2004-05 South Pacific cyclone season (which is the part of the 2004-05 Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone season) and the fourth and final cyclone to form during the February 2005 outbreak in the South Pacific Ocean.

Percy was also the most damaging of the February cyclones as it battered the Cook Islands, which were still recovering from the impacts of Cyclones Meena, Nancy and Olaf. Percy then devastated the island of Tokelau, leaving many homeless and millions in dollars in property damages (although exact damage figures are unavailable). Because of warnings in anticipation of the storm, there were no deaths and there were only a few injuries.
