These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator and west of the International Date Line. Storms that form east of the date line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1943 Pacific hurricane season. There were 34 tropical cyclones in the western Pacific in 1943.http://www.atms.unca.edu/ibtracs/ibtracs_v04r00/index.php?name=YearBasin-1943 IBTrACS - International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship www.atms.unca.edu 2020-09-03 2022-01-15 https://web.archive.org/web/20220115015905/http://www.atms.unca.edu/ibtracs/ibtracs_v04r00/index.php?name=YearBasin-1943 dead Systems Typhoon One-W WPac January 16 January 18 Typhoon One weather map, January 16, 1943.jpg 1943 Pacific typhoon 1 track.png 65 On January 16, the remnants of a weakening cold front to the east of the Philippines spawned an area of low pressure. The system became better organized as it moved to the northeast, however remained rather shallow. The low was absorbed by a cold front advancing from the north early on January 18, just to the north-northwest of Guam. Based on data from Chin's Atlas the system achieved typhoon strength between the 16 and the 18 of January,National Climatic Data Center 2013 6 January 2014 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration dead td9636 File ftp://eclipse.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/ibtracs/.original_source/td9636/cons_worldwide_trop_cyclone_18710101-19891231-003.htm#13403 however historical weather maps indicated the system never strengthened to a tropical storm.http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1943/19430117.pdf Northern Hemisphere Synoptic Weather Map for January 17, 1943 1943 United States of America Department of Commerce 6 January 2014 Tropical Storm Two-W WPac April 9 April 18 Tropical Storm Two weather map, April 15, 1943.jpg 1943 Pacific typhoon 2 track.png 55 A tropical low formed to the southwest of Guam and west of Palau on April 8.http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1943/19430408.pdf Northern Hemisphere Synoptic Weather Map for April 8, 1943 1943 United States of America Department of Commerce 6 January 2014 It moved westward over the next few days and continued to gradually deepen. Discrepancy in the location and strength of the system between Chin's Atlas and weather maps makes it difficult to pinpoint where the system went to after this point. The Chin's Atlas data set has the system moving to the north of Palau and eventually dissipating to the northeast of Catanduanes as a tropical storm on April 16. Historic weather maps has the low moving straight west towards Mindanao, and curving sharply to the north on the 13. Afterwards the low strengthens to a tropical storm while paralleling the coast to the east during April 14. On April 15 the storm made landfall in Eastern Samar with a pressure below 1000 millibars.http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1943/19430415.pdf Northern Hemisphere Synoptic Weather Map for April 15, 1943 1943 United States of America Department of Commerce 6 January 2014 Afterwards the storm weakened and moved north in response to a nearby front and stalled to the east of Luzon. An area of low pressure soon evolved to the north near Taiwan, on April 18, and moved the stalled depression to the north east. Later the system became absorbed with a cold front.http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1943/19430419.pdf Northern Hemisphere Synoptic Weather Map for April 19, 1943 1943 United States of America Department of Commerce 6 January 2014 Tropical Storm Three-W WPac April 15 April 16 Tropical Storm Three weather map, April 15, 1943.jpg 1943 Pacific typhoon 3 track.png 50 Chin's Atlas has a tropical storm moving to the northwest of the Mariana Islands between the 15 and 16 of April. Weather maps indicate a weak low pressure area attached to a cold front, likely indicating the storm was extra-tropical in nature.http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/swm/1943/19430416.pdf Northern Hemisphere Synoptic Weather Map for April 16, 1943 1943 United States of America Department of Commerce 6 January 2014 The remnants of the storm was located several miles south of Japan.

It gradually intensified into a tropical depression on the 28th.

It strengthened into a typhoon during its lifecycle but it is unknown of where it reached its intensity. The storm finally dissipated on May 20.http://ibtracs.unca.edu/index.php?name=v04r00-1943131N10134 IBTrACS - International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship ibtracs.unca.edu 2020-09-03 2023-10-01 https://web.archive.org/web/20231001130917/https://ibtracs.unca.edu/index.php?name=v04r00-1943131N10134 dead See also Tropical cyclones Pacific typhoon season 1900–1950 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone seasons 1940s Australian region cyclone seasons 1940s South Pacific cyclone seasons References External links USAtoday.com 1940 Pacific typhoon 1943 Category:1940s Pacific typhoon seasons Category:1943 natural disasters Category:Meteorological events in 1943 Category:1943 in Asia Category:1943 in Oceania
