2010 North Indian Ocean cyclone season
The 2010 Pacific typhoon season, with 14 named storms, was the least active Pacific typhoon season on record. Seven of them strengthened into typhoons while one reached super typhoon intensity. All of the 14 named storms developed west of 150°E.
The season ran throughout 2010, though most tropical cyclones tend to develop between June and October. The season's first named storm, Omais, developed on March 24 while the season's last named storm, Chaba dissipated or became extratropical on October 30. During the season only three storms were notable. Typhoon Kompasu was the strongest storm to make landfall over in South Korea in 15 years. In September, Typhoon Fanapi struck Taiwan and China, causing heavy damage in the two countries. No storms made landfall in mainland Japan, only the second such occurrence since 1988. During October, Typhoon Megi reached its peak intensity with a minimum barometric pressure of 885 hPa, making it one of the most intense typhoons ever recorded. In addition, a rare subtropical storm had developed during December and intensified into Tropical Storm Omeka where it crossed the basin.
The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean to the north of the equator between 100°E and 180th meridian. Within the northwestern Pacific Ocean, there are two separate agencies that assign names to tropical cyclones which can often result in a cyclone having two names. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) will name a tropical cyclone should it be judged to have 10-minute sustained wind speeds of at least 65 km/h mph on 5 anywhere in the basin, whilst the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) assigns names to tropical cyclones which move into or form as a tropical depression in their area of responsibility located between 135°E and 115°E and between 5°N–25°N regardless of whether or not a tropical cyclone has already been given a name by the JMA. Tropical depressions that are monitored by the United States' Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) are given a number with a "W" suffix.

Each season several national meteorological services and scientific agencies forecast how many tropical cyclones, tropical storms, and typhoons will form during a season and/or how many tropical cyclones will affect a particular country.
City University of Hong Kong
Since the 2000 Pacific typhoon season, the Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Centre (GCACIC), of the City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK), have issued forecasts of activity for each upcoming typhoon season.http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_APR.htm Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Center City University of Hong Kong April 2010 Predictions of Seasonal Tropical Cyclone Activity over the Western North Pacific 26 April 2010 26 April 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20110721091840/http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_APR.htm 2011-07-21 dead Forecasts on the number of tropical cyclones, tropical storms and typhoons there would be during 2010 in the Western Pacific were released in April and June. For the first time this year the GCACIC issued forecasts in May and July, which predicted how many tropical cyclones would make landfall in South China, and pass within 100 km mi on of either the Korean Peninsula or Japan during 2010.Forecasts of the number of tropical cyclones making landfall in South China and (2) the Korea-Japan region in 2010 http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_MAY.htm Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Center City University of Hong Kong 2 July 2010 24 May 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20110721091957/http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_MAY.htm 2011-07-21 deadForecasts of the number of tropical cyclones making landfall in South China and (2) the Korea-Japan region in 2010 http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_JUL.htm Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Center City University of Hong Kong 16 August 2010 27 July 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20110721092034/http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_JUL.htm 2011-07-21 dead
In its April 2010 forecast; GCACIC predicted that 28 tropical cyclones, 24 tropical storms, and 16 typhoons would form in the western north Pacific this year. However, in its June forecast the GCACIC reported that they now only expected 27 tropical cyclones, 23 tropical storms, and 15 typhoons, to form during the season.Updated Prediction of Seasonal Tropical Cyclone Activity over the Western North Pacific for 2010 http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_JUN.htm Guy Carpenter Asia-Pacific Climate Impact Center City University of Hong Kong 24 June 2010 2 July 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20110721091900/http://aposf02.cityu.edu.hk/~mcg/tc_forecast/2010_forecast_JUN.htm 2011-07-21 dead As a result of their predictions the GCACIC also predicted that tropical cyclone activity would be below average for the twelfth year in a row. In May the GCACIC forecasted that between May and December, six tropical cyclones would make landfall on Southern China and another six tropical cyclones would make landfall on or pass within 100 km mi on of either the Korean Peninsula or Japan. In July the GCACIC forecast that between July and December three tropical cyclones would make landfall on Southern China, while four tropical cyclones would make landfall on or pass within 100 km mi on of either the Korean Peninsula or Japan.
Tropical Storm Risk Consortium
Since the 2000 Pacific typhoon season, the Tropical Storm Risk Consortium (TSR) of the University College of London have issued forecasts of activity for each upcoming typhoon season. Forecasts on the number of tropical storms, typhoons and intense typhoons there would be during 2010 in the Western Pacific were released in March, May, July and August.According to TSR: An intense typhoon is a typhoon that has one-minute winds of at least 175 km/h mph on 5 In its March forecast TSR predicted that the season would see activity close to the average with 26 tropical storms, 16 typhoons and seven intense typhoons developing during the season. In its May forecast, while lowering their initial prediction for the amount of tropical storms and typhoons, TSR continued to predict that the season would see activity close to the average, with 24 tropical storms, 15 typhoons and nine intense typhoons developing during the season. In its July forecast TSR significantly lowered their forecast and reported that they now expected activity to be 20% below average, with 23 tropical storms 14 typhoons and seven intense typhoons developing during the season. In its August forecast TSR predicted that activity would be 25% – 30% below average with 23 tropical storms, 13 typhoons and six intense typhoons developing during the season. TSR also predicted that if their August forecast came true then the season would be in the lowest 25% of seasons.
National meteorological service predictions
The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) reported on January 7 that they were expecting a total of 19 tropical cyclones to pass through the Philippine area of responsibility during 2010. On March 23 the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO), predicted that less than six tropical cyclones would affect Hong Kong during the season.http://www.weather.gov.hk/dhkovoice/speech20100323e.pdf Speech by Dr. B Y Lee, Director of the Hong Kong Observatory 2010-03-23 23 March 2010 Hong Kong Observatory 2 July 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171213084914/http://www.weather.gov.hk/dhkovoice/speech20100323e.pdf 13 December 2017 As a result of being under the influence of a weakening El Niño, the HKO also predicted that the chances of a tropical cyclone affecting Hong Kong before June was not high. After Vietnam was hit by Tropical Depression 01W in January, the Vietnamese National Center for Hydro Meteorological forecasts predicted in May that 6–7 tropical cyclones would affect Vietnam during 2010.http://www.nchmf.gov.vn/website/en-US/70/106/Default.aspx Rainy season outlook for 2010 (from May to October) 2010 Vietnamese National Center for Hydro Meteorological forecasts 29 August 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20091019132559/http://www.nchmf.gov.vn/website/en-US/70/106/Default.aspx 19 October 2009 While the Thai Meteorological Department predicted that one or two tropical cyclones would affect Thailand between August and November.http://www.tmd.go.th/programs%5Cuploads%5Cforecast%5C2010-05-27_Seasonal_EN_135119.pdf Prediction of Rainy Season May to October 2010 2010 Thai Meteorological Department 29 August 2010 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20100728043347/http://www.tmd.go.th/programs%5Cuploads%5Cforecast%5C2010-05-27_Seasonal_EN_135119.pdf 28 July 2010 On June 30, the Central Weather Bureau of Taiwan predicted that the 2010 season would be below its normal climatic average of 26.6, and predicted that 20–23 tropical storms, would occur over the Western Pacific during 2010. The Central Weather Bureau also predicted that between two and four tropical storms would affect Taiwan during 2010. After the slow start to the season, on July 5, PAGASA reported that they now only expected 13–15 tropical cyclones to pass through the region.
Season summary
Timeline of the 2010 Pacific typhoon season
The first tropical cyclone of the season; Tropical Depression 01W formed on January 18, about 300 km to the northeast of Brunei. During the next 2 days the depression moved quickly and made landfall on Vietnam and dissipated over Cambodia during January 20. The depression caused 3 deaths and caused US$243,000 in damage to Vietnam.December 2011 After 01W had dissipated the Western Pacific became dormant until Tropical Storm Omais formed about 325 km mi on to the southeast of Chuuk Island on March 22. During the next couple of days Omais impacted the Micronesian islands of Woleai, Fais Ulithi and Yap, before moving into the Philippine area of responsibility and being named as Agaton by PAGASA. However, Omais (Agaton) dissipated on March 26 before it could affect the Philippines. After Omais dissipated there were 2 non-developing tropical depressions only monitored by the JMA in April and June before on July 11 the first typhoon of the season: Conson formed. Conson quickly intensified becoming a typhoon the next day, before making landfall on the Philippines during July 13.
Overall, there were 14 named tropical storms during the season, which was the lowest on record; this was 2 less than the previous record set in 1998, and 12.7 less than the average of 26.7 storms. Although activity was below normal throughout the year, the quietest time of the year, with respect to climatology, was from October to December. Only two storms formed during the time period, which was 5.7 less than average. The overall inactivity was due to a variety of meteorological conditions, including decreased vorticity and suppressed convection. During the summer of 2010, convective activity in southeastern Asia was shifted to the northern Indian Ocean due to winds in the upper atmosphere. However, sea surface temperatures were above normal due to an ongoing La Niña, despite that typically being a favorable factor in tropical cyclogenesis.Hirotaka Kamahori Japan Meteorological Agency March 2012 The Inactive Typhoon Season of 2010 2012-04-20 http://www.jma.go.jp/jma/jma-eng/jma-center/rsmc-hp-pub-eg/techrev/text14-1.pdf 2016-03-04 https://web.archive.org/web/20160304122417/http://www.jma.go.jp/jma/jma-eng/jma-center/rsmc-hp-pub-eg/techrev/text14-1.pdf live

On January 16, a disorganized area of low pressure formed in the south China Sea. The next day, it gradually intensified into a weak tropical disturbance by the JTWC. Early on January 18 the JMA reported that it was upgraded to a tropical depression which had formed within the northeast monsoon about 320 km mi on to the north-west of Bandar Seri Begawan in Brunei.https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi?A2%3Dind1001c%26L%3Dwx-tropl%26T%3D0%26X%3D558D791777B97BA4EA%26P%3D23203 https://archive.today/20240523154607/https://www.webcitation.org/5sKh0Xwni?url=https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi%3FA2=ind1001c&L=wx-tropl&T=0&X=558D791777B97BA4EA&P=23203 dead 23 May 2024 JMA WWJP25 Advisory 2010-01-18 06z Japan Meteorological Agency 18 January 2010 20 January 2010 The depression's low level circulation center was partially exposed and located within an area of moderate to strong vertical wind shear.https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi?A2%3Dind1001c%26L%3Dwx-tropl%26D%3D0%26T%3D0%26X%3D558D791777B97BA4EA%26P%3D24927 https://archive.today/20240523154930/https://www.webcitation.org/5sLa6UjC2?url=https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi%3FA2=ind1001c&L=wx-tropl&D=0&T=0&X=558D791777B97BA4EA&P=24927 dead 23 May 2024 Significant Tropical Weather Advisory for the Western and southern Pacific Ocean 2010-01-18 10z 18 January 2010 Joint Typhoon Warning Center 20 January 2010 However over the next 12 hours, whilst the depression moved towards Vietnam, the low level circulation center rapidly consolidated and became well defined after the vertical wind shear around the system relaxed.https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi?A2%3Dind1001c%26L%3Dwx-tropl%26T%3D0%26X%3D558D791777B97BA4EA%26P%3D28897 https://archive.today/20240522202713/https://www.webcitation.org/5sLaAab7C?url=https://listserv.illinois.edu/wa.cgi%3FA2=ind1001c&L=wx-tropl&T=0&X=558D791777B97BA4EA&P=28897 dead 22 May 2024 JTWC Tropical Cyclone Warning: 01W: 2010-01-18 21z 18 January 2010 Joint Typhoon Warning Center 20 January 2010 As a result of this the JTWC initiated advisories on the depression, designating it as Tropical Depression 01W.

Typhoon Conson (2010)
Typhoon Conson, developed into a tropical depression early on July 11 before rapidly developing into the second tropical storm of the season and named as Conson during the next day. During that afternoon Conson, kept intensifying before the JMA reported that Conson had reached its initial ten-minute peak sustained wind speeds of 110 km/h mph on 5, which made it a severe tropical Storm on the JMA's scale. Later that day, the JTWC reported that Conson had intensified into a typhoon before reporting early on July 13 the next day that it had reached its initial one-minute peak sustained wind speeds of 110 km/h mph on 5 which made it a Category 1 typhoon on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale. During July 13, Conson started to weaken as it interacted with the Philippines before it made landfall near General Nakar, Quezon. Whilst over the Philippines Conson moved towards the west and passed over Manila before moving into the South China Sea early on July 14. During that day Conson weakened further under the influence of high vertical wind shear before during the next day the vertical wind shear weakened slightly. As a result, Conson intensified over the South China Sea and became a typhoon early on July 16, with the JMA reporting ten-minute peak sustained wind speeds of 130 km/h mph on 5, whilst the JTWC reported peak one minute wind speeds of 150 km/h mph on 5 later that day as it passed closed to Hainan Island. After passing close to Hainan island, Conson moved into an area with high levels of vertical wind shear and as a result it rapidly weakened into a tropical storm, before making landfall in Vietnam during July 17. On July 18 Conson dissipated.
On the morning of July 13, DEPED suspended all elementary and preschool classes in Metro Manila and some other provinces. All flights were canceled due to heavy rains and strong winds brought by Conson. Severe flooding was also reported in Bicol Region.
In addition, Conson sank three fishing vessels in the province of Catanduanes, Philippines. JTWC's 6:00 bulletin indicated that Conson would be passing through Metro Manila at about 2 or 3 in the morning the following day, which it did.
By late evening, Conson began its westerly path towards the direction of Metro Manila. Heavy rains and strong winds battered the Metropolis throughout the night. By 11 pm, PAGASA raised storm warning in the Metro to Signal number two. At 12:42 am, Meralco cut off power supplies to Metro Manila and nearby areas amidst various reports that billboards fell through power lines around the area; as much as 12 million people in Metro Manila alone still have their power services restored by the afternoon. At least twenty-six people were killed, and 38 were left missing in the Philippines as a result of the storm.Associated Press The 26 Killed, 38 Missing As Typhoon Hits Philippines https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=128503121 14 July 2010 NPR July 14, 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100716194630/http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=128503121 16 July 2010 deadhttp://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/nation/view/20100714-281004/20-dead-as-basyang-rips-through-luzon 20 dead as 'Basyang' rips through Luzon Agence France-Presse Philippine Daily Inquirer 14 July 2010 15 July 2010 https://web.archive.org/web/20100716221154/http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/breakingnews/nation/view/20100714-281004/20-dead-as-Basyang-rips-through-Luzon 2010-07-16 dead The province of Laguna was placed under a state of calamity as a result of the storm.

Early on July 17, the JMA reported that a tropical depression had developed about 220 km mi on to the northeast of Manila, Philippines.http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/raw/ww/wwjp25.rjtd..txt JMA WWJP25 Advisory 2010-07-17 00z 17 July 2010 Japan Meteorological Agency 17 July 2010 live https://web.archive.org/web/20100901031010/http://weather.noaa.gov/pub/data/raw/ww/wwjp25.rjtd..txt 1 September 2010 Later that day the JTWC reported that the depression had a small low level circulation center with deep convection flaring to the northeast of the center. However, as the low level circulation center was located close to land and was not very organized, the JTWC declared that there was a poor chance of it becoming a significant tropical cyclone within 48 hours. However, during that day, the depression rapidly consolidated with an anticyclone helping to develop the low level circulation center. As a result, early the next day the JTWC issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert on the depression, however they thought that further development might be hindered as it was located close to land. Whilst it moved along the southern edge of the subtropical ridge, the Depression made landfall on Aurora province at 0600 UTC, before the JTWC initiated advisories later that morning, as the low level circulation center had consolidated and poleward outflow into the tropical upper tropospheric trough had improved. Late on July 19, PAGASA issued their last advisory on Tropical Storm Caloy as it had moved out of their Area of Responsibility.

Typhoon Kompasu (2010)
On early August 27, an area of low pressure formed about 305 km mi on to the east of Yap Island. At that time, the system was disorganized due to high vertical wind shear. On the next day, the system started to move northwest and crossed Guam island. On the evening of that day, the system was located about 370 km mi on northwest of Guam. At that time, the system experienced low vertical windshear and was located in a favorable environment. A tropical upper tropospheric trough (TUTT) was located to the east of the system. At that time, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) upgraded the system into a tropical depression. Midday of August 29, the Joint Typhoon Warning Centre (JTWC) issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA) on the system as the Low Level Circulation Centre had become organized. On the morning of that same day, the JTWC announced that the system had quickly developed into a tropical storm and assigned the designation "08W". Intensification continued, then by midday of August 30, the JMA reported that the depression had intensified into a tropical storm and assigned it the international designation "Kompasu". In addition, PAGASA also announced that the low pressure in the northeast of Batanes had formed and assigned it a local name, "Glenda". After six hours, the JMA reported that Kompasu had intensified rapidly into a severe tropical storm. At the same time, the JTWC also upgraded Kompasu into a Category 1 typhoon. On the next day, Kompasu crossed the island of Okinawa and rapidly intensified into a Category 2 typhoon equivalent. On September 1, Kompasu was upgraded by JTWC as a Category 3 typhoon equivalent, becoming the 3rd strongest typhoon of the season at the time.
The storm later weakened to a Category 1 typhoon in the Yellow Sea, before veering northeast and making landfall on Ganghwa Island, northwest of Incheon and Seoul, killing at least four people.Yoon Sangwon Typhoon suspends SKorean flights, trains, kills 4 http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9HVPT5G0.htm 2 September 2010 Bloomberg Businessweek September 2, 2010 25 October 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20121025232112/http://www.businessweek.com/ap/financialnews/D9HVPT5G0.htm dead Kompasu was the strongest tropical storm to hit the Seoul metropolitan area in 15 years.Typhoon Kompasu batters Seoul and west coastal areas https://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/article/view.asp?aid=2925479 https://web.archive.org/web/20160306163546/http://koreajoongangdaily.joins.com/news/article/article.aspx?aid=2925479 Mar 6, 2016 2023-02-01 koreajoongangdaily.joins.com en Kompasu weakened to a tropical storm over the Sea of Japan on September 2.

On August 27, an extensive cloud formed in the waters east of Taiwan. On August 28, it developed into a low pressure. At 18:00, near Yaeyama Islands, the Japan Meteorological Agency upgraded the low pressure into a tropical depression. There were two tropical cyclones developing on both sides of 09W (namely Lionrock and Kompasu), and Typhoon Kompasu had a relatively stronger intensity, causing 09W moved southwest to Taiwan Strait. This tropical depression lingered in the east of Taiwan for over a day. On August 30, it caused heavy rain in northern Taiwan. Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau could only issue a tropical depression warning since it had not strengthened to a tropical storm. At 20:00, 09W suddenly intensified into a tropical storm, and was named Namtheun. However, due to the development of another stronger tropical storm Lionrock at South China Sea, the increase of intensity of Namtheun was difficult. In the evening of August 31, Namtheun weakened into a tropical depression north of Taiwan Strait, then continued to move south to southwest, and skirted the southern coast of Fujian province. It continued to weaken, and finally transformed into a low pressure along the coast of Huian, Guangdong. Early of September 1, Lionrock made a Fujiwhara effect with Namtheun, whilst Lionrock maintained its strength while Namtheun was absorbed by Lionrock and fully dissipated early on 1 September.

Malou started out as a tropical depression wandering around the Western Pacific. It moved into the Philippine Area of Responsibility and was given the name Henry. It remained for a depression for two days before it strengthened into a tropical storm and was given the name Malou. Malou drifted over the Okinawa Islands and became a severe tropical storm. After passing through the Okinawa Islands, Malou was expected to make a landfall on Jeju Island; instead, it turned northeast and landed on Tsushima Island as a tropical storm on September 7. It then moved along the coast of Honshū and made another landfall near Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture, Japan on September 8. After the second landfall, Malou weakened into a tropical depression over Shizuoka Prefecture. Nevertheless, it lingered over Kantō region and caused heavy rain in Greater Tokyo AreaFebruary 2023 until it transitioned into a polar low on September 10.

Early on September 6, the JMA reported that a tropical depression had formed about 330 km mi on to the southeast of Taipei, Taiwan. Later that day the JTWC started to monitor the system and reported that the depression, had an unorganized low level circulation center that had convection flaring over it and was located in a favorable environment of decreasing vertical windshear and high sea surface temperatures. During the next day as the depression moved towards Taiwan the system became better organized with a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert issued later that day. In the morning of September 9, JMA upgraded the cyclone into a tropical storm, and it was named Meranti. After Meranti was upgraded into a tropical storm, it continued to move northward into Taiwan Strait. Early on September 10, Meranti made a landfall at Shishi City, Quanzhou, Fujian Province, China. It continued to move north toward inland Fujian. In the evening of September 10, the JMA downgraded Meranti into a tropical depression.
In Hong Kong, a violent thunderstorm associated with Meranti produced a record 13,102 strikes of lightning in one hour. Several skyscrapers were struck by lightning, resulting in five incidents of people becoming trapped in stalled-out elevators. Torrential rains, exceeding 40 mm in on per hour triggered flash flooding and wind gusts up to 100 km/h mph on were recorded.Nick Gentle Bloomberg News September 9, 2010 October 18, 2010 Hong Kong Hit By Record 13,000 Lightning Strikes in One Hour https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-09-09/hong-kong-hit-by-record-13-000-lightning-strikes-during-one-hour-of-storm.html live https://web.archive.org/web/20100912182413/http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-09-09/hong-kong-hit-by-record-13-000-lightning-strikes-during-one-hour-of-storm.html September 12, 2010

On December 16, an extratropical cyclone developed in the western Pacific Ocean beneath an upper-level low, just west of the International Date Line. The system drifted southeastward, crossing into the Central Pacific on December 17, and developing into a subtropical cyclone. The storm re-entered the Western Pacific on December 19 after turning back to the southwest. An area of warm water temperatures fueled the development of thunderstorms, signaling the system's transition into a tropical cyclone, with an eye-feature in the center.Timothy A. Craig, Samuel H.

While west of the dateline, the CPHC and JMA referred to the system as a tropical cyclone while the JTWC considered it a subtropical disturbance. Early on December 20, the system crossed over the International Date Line into the Central Pacific basin, where the CPHC named it Tropical Storm Omeka. The storm lasted three more days before dissipating.

On the same time, the disturbance suddenly strengthened and its LLCC began to consolidate as well as significant banding all over the system and located over moderate vertical wind shear. Early of April 26, the disturbance rapidly strengthen again and was starting to be enhanced by a tropical upper tropospheric trough (TUTT) cell to the northeast of the system, whilst the JMA upgraded it into a tropical depression. Later that day, the depression made landfall over Davao City and Surigao del Sur boundary and crossed central Mindanao. Early on April 27, JMA downgraded the depression into an area of low pressure while it was located in vicinity of Sulu Island. In the next couple of days the low pressure start to move northwest towards South China Sea. On the same time, the low pressure crossed Palawan Island on the afternoon of April 29.

Storm names
Within the North-western Pacific Ocean, both the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) and the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration assign names to tropical cyclones that develop in the Western Pacific, which can result in a tropical cyclone having two names.Monthly Tropical Cyclone summary December 1999 August 28, 2012 live Padgett, Gary Australian Severe Weather http://www.australiasevereweather.com/cyclones/2000/summ9912.htm https://web.archive.org/web/20120211074501/http://australiasevereweather.com/cyclones/2000/summ9912.htm February 11, 2012 The Japan Meteorological Agency's RSMC Tokyo — Typhoon Center assigns international names to tropical cyclones on behalf of the World Meteorological Organization's Typhoon Committee, should they be judged to have 10-minute sustained windspeeds of 65 km/h mph on.Typhoon Committee Operational Manual 2012 http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/tcp/documents/TCP-23EDITION2012.pdf https://web.archive.org/web/20130801020116/http://www.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/tcp/documents/TCP-23EDITION2012.pdf World Meteorological Organization August 1, 2013 37–38 February 21, 2012 the Typhoon Committee live While the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration assigns names to tropical cyclones which move into or form as a tropical depression in their area of responsibility located between 135°E and 115°E and between 5°N-25°N even if the cyclone has had an international name assigned to it. The names of significant tropical cyclones are retired, by both PAGASA and the Typhoon Committee. Should the list of names for the Philippine region be exhausted then names will be taken from an auxiliary list of which the first ten are published each season. Unused names are marked in .
International names
Lists of tropical cyclone names Tropical cyclone naming
During the season 15 named tropical cyclones developed in the Western Pacific and 14 were named by the Japan Meteorological Agency, when it was determined that they had become tropical storms. These names were contributed to a list of a 140 names submitted by the fourteen members nations and territories of the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee. The names Lionrock and Fanapi were used for the first time (and only, in the case of Fanapi), after they replaced Tingting and Rananim following the 2004 season.

Other names
If a tropical cyclone enters the Western Pacific basin from the Eastern and Central Pacific basin (west of 180°E), it will retain the name assigned to it by the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC). The following storms were named in this manner.
