The season officially began on May 15 in the Eastern Pacific , and on June 1 in the Central Pacific , and ended on November 30; these dates conventionally delimit the period during which most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific basin . Typhoon Bart, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Oniang, was a powerful and destructive typhoon that occurred during the 1999 Pacific typhoon season.It was the only super typhoon of that year. [17] While moving westward, the depression entered the Central Pacific Hurricane Center's area of responsibility on July 24. At 0600 UTC the following day, the hurricane attained its peak intensity with winds of 115 mph (195 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 955 mbar (28.20 inHg) while situated roughly 800 miles (1300 km) southwest of Cabo San Lucas. By 1200 UTC on September 5, Tropical Depression Twelve-E developed near Manzanillo, Mexico. [33], Tropical Depression 14W formed 120 km (75 mi) to the north of Iwo Jima on August 8. The storm soon weakened due to increasing wind shear and interaction with land, and it dissipated on November 11. [38] In addition to the direct casualties from the storm, China Airlines Flight 642, using an MD-11 aircraft, crashed while attempting to land at Hong Kong International Airport, killing three on board and injuring 219. [27], Both Gerg and its predecessor disturbance brought heavy rain to much of Mexico. The depression did not intensify as it moved to the northwest, brushing the northeast tip of Luzon on September 2. Curving towards the west-northwest, Beatriz began to encounter an area of cooler sea surface temperatures, which led to gradual weakening. Paul was also considered a tropical storm by the JMA, who reported that the rainfall from the storm caused landslides and flooding in western Japan. It maintained this intensity until it made landfall in China 220 km (140 mi) east-northeast of Hong Kong on September 3. Due to the development of an eye feature and large increase in deep convection, Hilary was upgraded to hurricane on September 20, while located about 200 miles (320 km) southwest of the Baja California Peninsula. Minor surf occurred along the east and southeast shores of the Big Island. On August 4 the depression became Tropical Storm Paul and began to merge with the gyre from which it had formed. 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. Ann captured by a mid-level trough moving through the region and turned to the east, rapidly weakening as it crossed the Yellow Sea. [73] PAGASA tracked Frankie as a tropical storm, naming it Sendang. On July 21 it began to intensify, becoming Tropical Depression 08W to the northeast of Okinawa. Though it peaked as a Category 3 hurricane before dissipating on July 17, the storm caused no damage on land because it remained well offshore. [23] There were reports of damage from flooding and winds gusts from Tropical Storm Neil in Japan, with a ferry running aground near Kannoura. Around that time, Calvin turned northwestward in response to a mid-tropospheric trough. By early on August 21, Fernanda weakened to a tropical depression. Moving westward around the southern periphery of a ridge to the north, it continued to intensify. The depression moved to the west, brushing the south coast of Kyūshū on August 6 before dissipating in the Yellow Sea. [5], A tropical wave moved off the African coast on July 27 and entered the Pacific Ocean on August 6. At 0600 UTC on July 17, Beatriz degenerated into a swirl of clouds. [51] Ten thousand people were left stranded by flooding in China after the storm and more than 10,000 trees were uprooted in Shenzhen. That same flooding worsened the ongoing food shortages across the country. After the two systems had merged, Paul turned briefly to the northeast and weakened to back into a tropical depression. The system intensified as it moved west-northwest, becoming Tropical Storm Dan on October 3 before reaching typhoon strength the next day. However, it briefly restrengthened into a Category 3 as it passed south of Hawaii on August 16. [58] Heavy flooding and landslides led to total of a 30 deaths and over 1,000 injuries in Japan. [15], A tropical wave developed into by 0600 UTC on July 9, while situated roughly 300 mi (480 km) south of Lázaro Cárdenas, Mexico. The 2019 Pacific typhoon season was the costliest Pacific typhoon season on record, just ahead of the previous year.The season was fairly above-average, producing 29 named storms, 17 typhoons, and five super typhoons. The 1999 Pacific hurricane season was one of the least active Pacific hurricane seasons on record. Post-season analysis increased the initial intensity of the system, making it a tropical storm before the JTWC began to issue full advisories on Tanya. 1999 Pacific hurricane season map.png 1,254 × 762; 508 KB 06E 1999-07-26 1930Z.png 1,800 × 1,800; 4.08 MB 1999 Pacific hurricane season summary.jpg 3,000 × 1,787; 256 KB The depression was upgraded to Tropical Storm Beatriz at 1200 UTC on July 9. 1991 Pacific typhoon season: | | 1991 Pacific typhoon season | | | First system fo... World Heritage Encyclopedia, the aggregation of the largest online encyclopedias available, and the most definitive collection ever assembled. Nine people died in Japan as a result of Tropical Storm Zia. [3], On July 15, a tropical wave entered the eastern Pacific Ocean. [49] As the system developed it turned first to the northwest and then to the west, becoming Tropical Storm Ann a day after forming. The system dissipated just off the South Korean coast near Mokpo early on September 20. After a strong mid-tropospheric ridge developed over northern Mexico, Irwin moved northwestward and remained offshore Mexico. The hurricane weakened to a tropical storm at 0000 UTC on July 16, and further to a tropical depression by 1800 UTC that day. [30], The southern portion of the tropical wave that previously spawned Tropical Depression Eleven in the Gulf of Mexico entered the Pacific Ocean in early October. Adrian fell to tropical storm status late on June 21, and further weakened to a tropical depression on June 22. Because PAGASA started a new naming scheme in 2001, therefore, this naming list would not be used in the 2003 season. [18] The storm killed at least two people, with another five reported missing on Taiwan. Sam gradually intensified further as it approached the Chinese coast and it made landfall about 19 km (12 mi) to the northeast of Hong Kong at its peak with 140 km/h (85 mph) winds on August 22. [46] Both the JMA and PAGASA monitored Tropical Storm Wendy, with PAGASA naming this storm Mameng. [51], Two ships ran aground and a cargo ship sank, but all the crew were successfully rescued. [21], On July 23, a disturbance began to form in the Philippine Sea within the monsoon trough. On August 2 the JTWC issued a TCFA for the developing disturbance as it moved to the northwest, and it became Tropical Depression 12W the next day. There was limited flooding in the region and about 150 people were evacuated to emergency shelters. After passing over Hong Kong, York killed 15 and injured 700 in Guangdong, with economic losses there exceeding $24 million (USD). PAGASA named the storm Auring. The depression initially moved slowly north-northwestward and strengthened into Tropical Storm Irwin about six hours later. The system persisted in the South China Sea. [20], A tropical disturbance moving north to the east of Okinawa, Japan gradually developed as it moved to the north towards the Japanese mainland. Maggie passed just to the north of Hong Kong before it turned into the mouth of the Pearl River and dissipated inland on June 8. It strengthened as it moved to the west and became Tropical Storm Leo the next day. However, the wave quickly increased in organization after entering the Eastern Pacific Ocean on August 4, and was designated Tropical Depression Seven-E on August 6. Despite a few convective bursts, the depression remained weak and degenerated into a swirl of low clouds at 0000 UTC on July 28. The depression dissipated on July 18 to the southeast of Honshū. A low-cloud swirl remained and subsequently continued on a west-northwesterly course for a few days. The developing cyclone slowly moved to the northwest, becoming Tropical Depression 16W nine hours after the TCFA was first issued. After weakening slightly further, the storm degenerated into a remnant low cloud swirl at 0000 UTC on August 23. While crossing Central America on July 11 and July 12, the system produced gusty winds and heavy rainfall, especially in Honduras, Nicaragua,[3] and Mexico, where precipitation reached 15.75 inches (400 mm) in Coyutla, Veracruz. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. The compact system intensified as it moved west under the influence of the subtropical ridge to the north, with the JTWC upgrading it to Tropical Storm Tanya early the next day. The Philippines' most damaging storm in recent memory, Typhoon Yolanda (Haiyan), made landfall in late 2013, causing over 6,300 deaths and an estimated $2.05 billion in damage.

[24], A tropical wave entered the eastern Pacific on August 15 and formed a surface low pressure area south of Mexico on August 19. There was only light damage in Hong Kong as a result of Typhoon Leo, but the rainfall was responsible for 14 injuries, mostly in traffic accidents. One person was injured in Macau and 120 incidents related to the storm were reported there. This can often result in the same storm having two names. The two most notable storms were Floyd, and Lenny. It moved westward, strengthening into a tropical storm before crossing the International Date Line on December 7.
