active_tropical_cyclones

Lists tropical cyclones active at a given time. Call first to get storm IDs for tropical_cyclone_forecast.

Two use cases:
- Current activity: use 'latest' to return storms active right now.
- Historical lookup: pass a specific YYYYMMDDHH timestamp to return storms
that were active at that time (e.g., "what storms were active in September 2024?").
