2010 Pacific typhoon season

1231:, Philippines. 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. Following the system's development, PAGASA stated that rainfall from system could trigger landslides and flooding in Aurora, the Bicol Region, and Quezon. Throughout Aurora, heavy rains triggered flash flooding which destroyed at least one home and stranded hundreds of residents. The Paltic 741:, 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. 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. 2834:, 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. The JMA classified the system as a tropical depression, located about 2,600 km (1,615 mi) to the west of Hilo, Hawaii. The JTWC considered the system as subtropical due to the cold-nature of the circulation, with the presence of dry air from the northwest. The JTWC estimated sustained winds of at least 85 km/h (55 mph) and had a pressure of 990 mbar (hPa). However, there is a disagreement between warning centers on the nature of the system. 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. 1834:. 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 hours 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. 2203:

further upgraded it into a tropical storm naming it "Malakas". On September 22, the storm strengthened further and moved towards the Japanese Islands. The next day, the storm intensified into a Severe tropical storm. The JTWC directly upgraded the storm into a Typhoon that time. Later on that day, the JTWC reported that the Typhoon weakened to a tropical storm unexpectedly. By the next day, the storm reintensified into a Category 1 typhoon and further intensified into a Category 2 typhoon on the SSHS. The JMA also reported that the system had intensified into a Typhoon. By the next day, the JTWC reported that the storm had weakened into a Category 1 typhoon issuing its final warning while the JMA announced the storms closest approach to Japan. The system later transitioned into a powerful extratropical cyclone on September 25, which stalled near Alaska for a few days, until it was absorbed by a larger extratropical storm on October 1.

2006:. 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. In the early hours of 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. 1720:. 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 2491:(PAGASA) started monitoring the system as Tropical Depression "Katring" On October 24, the JMA and JTWC upgraded the tropical depression into a tropical storm and the JMA named it "Chaba". On October 25, the JMA further upgraded the storm into a Severe Tropical Storm. Later that day, the JTWC upgraded the storm into a Category 1 Typhoon. Early on October 26, the JMA further upgraded the storm into a Typhoon. Early on October 27, the JTWC upgraded the typhoon into a Category 2 Typhoon. The following day the JTWC upgraded the system into a Category 4 Typhoon, but soon after weakened back to a Category 3. Late on October 29, the JMA had downgraded the typhoon into a Severe Tropical Storm while the JTWC downgraded it into a Category 1 Typhoon. Early on October 30, the JTWC reported that Chaba had transitioned into an 1348: 1179: 1042: 1011:. The JTWC then initiated advisories on the system later that day, designating it as Tropical Depression 02W, although the JMA did not designate the system as a tropical depression until early on March 22. During March 22 further development of the system was hampered by an anticyclone to the east of the system that caused moderate to strong wind shear. Early of the next day, JTWC upgraded the depression into a tropical storm, and on 24 March JMA upgraded it to Tropical Storm Omais, the first of the season. Late on March 25, the JTWC downgraded Omais to tropical depression strength. Tropical Depression Omais re-gained tropical storm status late on March 26 as it was becoming extratropical. 729:

form during the season. 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 (62 mi) 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 (62 mi) of either the Korean Peninsula or Japan.

1400:, Taiwan. Later that day PAGASA reported that the disturbance had developed into a tropical depression and named it as Ester, before the JTWC issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert early the next day. During that day the JMA started to monitor the depression before the JTWC designated it as Tropical Depression 05W. The depression was then upgraded into a tropical storm by the JMA and named "Dianmu", the mother of lightning in Chinese folklore, with the JTWC following suit soon after. Early the next day, the JMA further upgraded the tropical storm into a severe tropical storm. After moving northward for several days, it turned northeastward and struck southern 2576:(JTWC) identified the same system as Tropical Depression 17W. On October 23, the JTWC downgraded the depression into a remnant low. Early on October 26, the JMA issued their final advisory on the depression. However, early, the next day the JMA reported that the system had re-intensified into a tropical depression and reissuing advisories on it, whilst it was located about 1,400 km (870 mi) to the southwest of Chiba, Japan. However, later that day, the depression weakened to a remnant low, with the JMA issuing their final advisory on the system. The remnants of the depression dissipated completely early on October 28. 4640: 1954: 2277:

inland. However, as it approached South China on October 6, the depression began weakening and the final warning was issued for the system. The system continued to weaken as it made landfall on South China on October 7, and moved back over the South China Sea. Later on the same day, the depression degenerated to the remnant low. The system continued to drift in the South China Sea for the 4 days. During this time, the remnant low regenerated slightly, but didn't restrengthen into a tropical depression, and the system dissipated on October 11 near Hong Kong.

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 1778: 1557: 911:

defined after the vertical wind shear around the system relaxed. As a result of this the JTWC initiated advisories on the depression, designating it as Tropical Depression 01W. During the next day, the depression weakened with the low level circulation center becoming partially exposed, as it moved over an area of cold sea surface temperatures. As a result of this the JTWC issued their final advisory on the system later that day. The depression then made landfall on Vietnam near

The depression was in an area of moderate vertical windshear and had a broad low level circulation. Later the next day on July 25, the depression made landfall in Yilan County before the JMA stopped monitoring the depression as it dissipated near the coast of Fujian province. Late on July 26, the JMA reported that a tropical depression had formed, within a monsoonal trough, about 400 km (250 mi) to the south of 2433: 1867: 2779: 955: 2979:

windshear, about 500 km (310 mi) to the northeast of Ho Chi Minh City in Southern Vietnam. During that day the depression moved westwards as its low level circulation center gradually consolidated further, before the JTWC issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert on the system. However, the system became fully exposed by the next day, prompting the JTWC to cancel the TCFA. The JMA last noted the system by November 5.

During the next day, the depression remained offshore and moved towards the north, passing about 120 km (75 mi) to the southeast of Shanghai, before weakening into an area of low pressure on July 28. During that day, the area of low pressure kept moving north, before dissipating later that day as it affected 2938:. On the next day, the depression continued to move northwest until on early of July 20, the depression was absorbed by frontal system. On that same day, the JMA issued their final advisory on the depression. Early on July 24, the JMA reported that a tropical depression had formed about 50 km (31 mi) to the east of 2971:. Isolated thunderstorms were developing in association with the small low-level circulation. During the next day, the disturbance moved towards the west and moved into the western Pacific, where the JMA immediately designated it as a tropical depression. The depression was expected to bring inclement weather to 1508:.
