It was also the second of three known typhoon seasons during the satellite era (since 1960) to not produce a Category 5-equivalent super typhoon, sandwiched between the 1974 and 2017 seasons. The season's first storm, Severe Tropical Storm Patsy, formed on March 23 and the last, Typhoon Mary, dissipated on January 2, 1978. With Mary spanning two calendar years, it became the fourth typhoon to do so since 1945. Since then, two other typhoons have achieved this feat. 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 1977 Pacific hurricane season. Tropical Storms formed in the entire west pacific basin were assigned a name by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Tropical depressions in this basin have the "W" suffix added to their number. Tropical depressions that enter or form in the Philippine area of responsibility are assigned a name by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration or PAGASA. This can often result in the same storm having two names. Season summary Systems A total of 54 tropical depressions were recognized by the various warning agencies this year in the Western Pacific, of which 20 became tropical storms. Eleven storms reached typhoon intensity, of which three reached super typhoon strength.1977 ATCR TABLE OF CONTENTS https://web.archive.org/web/20110606234913/http://www.usno.navy.mil/NOOC/nmfc-ph/RSS/jtwc/atcr/1977atcr/pdf/1977.html 2011-06-06 Tropical Depression Atring WPac Atring 1977 path.png January 10 January 13 30 PAGASA Tropical Depression Atring formed in the western Pacific Ocean in 1977.

Super Typhoon Babe (Miling) WPac Typhoon Babe.JPG Babe 1977 path.png September 2 September 12 130 110 905 Typhoon Babe (1977) Developing as a tropical depression on September 2, Babe initially tracked west-northwestward as it intensified. On September 5, an abrupt shift in steering currents caused the system to turn north-northwestward. Over the following two days, Babe quickly intensified, ultimately attaining its peak intensity early on September 8 with winds of 240 km/h mph on 5 and a barometric pressure of 905 mbar (hPa; 905 mbar inHg on 4 out). Not long after reaching this strength, another shift in the steering patterns caused the typhoon to execute a prolonged counter-clockwise arc, causing it to track through the Ryukyu Islands, as it interacted with a low pressure originating from the Korean Peninsula. During this time, the system gradually weakened and eventually it made landfall near Shanghai, China on September 11 as a minimal typhoon before dissipating inland the following day.International Best Track Archive 2013 April 17, 2013 1977 Babe (1977243N05156) http://storm5.atms.unca.edu/browse-ibtracs/browseIbtracs.php?name=v03r02-1977243N05156 September 2016 InternetArchiveBot yes Passing through the Ryukyu Islands as a powerful typhoon, Babe caused considerable damage in the region.

Typhoon Dinah (Openg) WPac Dinah.png Dinah 1977 path.png September 14 September 23 75 70 965 The monsoon trough spawned a tropical storm on September 14 northeast of the northern Philippines. The previous typhoon brought the trough more northward, hence the unusually high latitude for a monsoon storm. Strong high pressure to Dinah's northwest forced the storm to the southwest, where it crossed northern Luzon on the 15th and 16th. Weak steering currents in the South China Sea allowed Dinah to drift, first then to the northeast then back to the west-southwest. Generally favorable conditions allowed Dinah to reach typhoon strength on the 19th, but a developing tropical storm to its northeast caused it to weaken. The building of the subtropical ridge forced Dinah to the southwest, where it hit southern Vietnam on the 23rd as a tropical depression. The remnants turned northward, crossed the Gulf of Tonkin, and dissipated over China on the 27th. Dinah brought heavy rain and flooding to Luzon that killed 54 people and left 11 others missing.http://baseportal.com/cgi-bin/baseportal.pl?htx=/miso/typhoons&range=40,20 Destructive Typhoons 1970-2003 November 9, 2004 National Disaster Coordinating Council April 22, 2013 https://web.archive.org/web/20041109181317/http://baseportal.com/cgi-bin/baseportal.pl?htx=%2Fmiso%2Ftyphoons&range=40%2C20 November 9, 2004 dead Tropical Storm Emma WPac Emma 1977 path.png September 15 September 20 60 60 965 Tropical Storm Emma formed in the western Pacific Ocean in 1977.

The first 20 names slated for use in the season are listed below, with only one remaining unused. Patsy Ruth Sarah Thelma Vera Wanda Amy Babe Carla Dinah Emma Freda Gilda Harriet Ivy Jean Kim Lucy Mary Nadine Philippines Atring Bining Kuring Daling Elang Goring Huling Ibiang Luming Miling Narsing Openg Pining Rubing Saling Tasing Unding Walding Yeyeng Auxiliary list Anding Binang Kadiang Dinang Epang Gundang The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration uses its own naming scheme for tropical cyclones in their area of responsibility. PAGASA assigns names to tropical depressions that form within their area of responsibility and any tropical cyclone that might move into their area of responsibility. Should the list of names for a given year prove to be insufficient, names are taken from an auxiliary list, the first 6 of which are published each year before the season starts. Names not retired from this list will be used again in the 1981 season. This is the same list used for the 1973 season. PAGASA uses its own naming scheme that starts in the Filipino alphabet, with names of Filipino female names ending with "ng" (A, B, K, D, etc.). Names that were not assigned/going to use are marked in . Retirement Due to its impacts in the Philippines, PAGASA later retired the name Unding and was replaced by Unsing for the 1981 season. However, the name Unding would later be reused in the 2004 season, only for it to be re-retired by PAGASA due to its effects in Luzon. Season effects This table will list all the storms that developed in the northwestern Pacific Ocean west of the International Date Line and north of the equator during 1977. It will include their intensity, duration, name, areas affected, deaths, missing persons (in parentheses), and damage totals. Classification and intensity values will be based on estimations conducted by the JMA. All damage figures will be in 1977 USD. Damages and deaths from a storm will include when the storm was a precursor wave or an extratropical low. |- | Atring || 770110 January 10–15 || bgcolor=#TD|0 Tropical depression || bgcolor=#TD|055 55
