2017 Pacific typhoon season (Sass/Keranique)

rdfs:comment

The 2017 Pacific typhoon season was an extremely active year of tropical cyclone formation in the Western Pacific ocean. The activity was year-round due to a strong El Niño along the equatorial Pacific - an event in which conditions conducive to tropical cyclone development are spread across the Pacific ocean. The season broke records due to its hyperactivity, with record numbers of storms, typhoons, and super typhoons. Impact was widespread and ruinous as nearly all storms affected land to some degree. The scope of this article is limited to the north of the equator between 100ºE and the 180th meridian. The season also featured crossover storms from the Central Pacific - the most notable was Hurricane/Typhoon Anthony, which, alongside Typhoon Keranique, was one of the strongest tropical c

n12:abstract

The 2017 Pacific typhoon season was an extremely active year of tropical cyclone formation in the Western Pacific ocean. The activity was year-round due to a strong El Niño along the equatorial Pacific - an event in which conditions conducive to tropical cyclone development are spread across the Pacific ocean. The season broke records due to its hyperactivity, with record numbers of storms, typhoons, and super typhoons. Impact was widespread and ruinous as nearly all storms affected land to some degree. The scope of this article is limited to the north of the equator between 100ºE and the 180th meridian. The season also featured crossover storms from the Central Pacific - the most notable was Hurricane/Typhoon Anthony, which, alongside Typhoon Keranique, was one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded. 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 (40 mph) 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.
