. Due to favoritable conditions, the depression rapidly intensified into a tropical storm and was named ''Tokage'' by the JMA. Three days later, the JTWC upgraded Tokage into a typhoon, with the JMA following suit 3 hours later. Tokage reached its peak intensity as a Category 3 before entering hostile environments east of Japan. Tokage became an extratropical storm on August 25 before it was last noted south of Alaska. Additionally, on August 22, a tropical depression formed north of Typhoon Tokage. However, it dissipated on the same day. Nearing the end of August on the 28th, a tropical depression formed southeast of Japan. The depression was named ''Hinnamnor'' by the JMA 6 hours later upon formation. Hinnamnor later strengthened into the basin's first Category 5-equivalent typhoon. Hinnamnor headed west towards the

which inundated several coastal villages and towns. Despite the impact, no injuries were reported. On September 11, the JMA began tracking a weak tropical depression which formed east of Iwo-To. The JTWC followed suit and designated the system as 16W on the next day. The depression later strengthened into a tropical storm and was named ''Nanmadol'' by the JMA. Nanmadol then intensified into a Category 1 typhoon on the same day. It further reached its peak intensity as a Category 4 typhoon as it approached Japan. The approaching typhoon prompted the JMA to issue a special warning which advised at least 4 million people to evacuate. Nanmadol then made landfall on the island of

Noru then re-developed a pinhole eye and reintensified into a Category 4 in the South China Sea, before getting sheared and striking Vietnam as a strong Category 2 before heading inland the Indochina Peninsula. Shortly after Noru's formation the JMA began tracking another tropical depression southeast of Japan. The depression was then named ''Kulap'' shortly after. Kulap gradually intensified in the open Pacific Ocean, becoming a typhoon as per the Joint Typhoon Warning Center by September 28. As the Philippines was still reeling from the effects of Super Typhoon Noru, PAGASA named Tropical Depression Luis in the Philippine Sea, with JTWC later designating Luis as 20W. Luis left the PAR shortly after without affecting the country. Outside the PAR, the storm began intensifying and was classified as a tropical storm which was then named ''Roke'' by the JMA. It quickly reached Category 1 strength and hours later on September 29, as a Category 2 typhoon. The intensification didn't last long and like Kulap, it didn't impact any areas. Roke eventually became an extratropical cyclone. However, Roke's remnants later developed into a subtropical storm. On October 11, a depression named Maymay by the PAGASA, formed off the coast of the Philippines. Maymay was rather short lived and dissipated the next day. Despite the depression being short-lived, two people were killed from the storm and the storm caused infrastructure and agricultural damage. On the next day, another tropical depression classified as 21W formed east of the Mariana Islands. 21W was also short lived and never made landfall. On October 13, another tropical depression formed west of the Philippines in the

Severe Tropical Storm Ma-on (Florita)

On August 19, the JMA began tracking a low pressure area in the Philippine Sea, around north of Palau. The low pressure area slowly moved westwards, eventually developing into a tropical depression on August 20. The following day, the PAGASA also announced the system's formation into a tropical depression, and as a result of its position within the PAR, assigned it the name ''Florita''. Shortly afterwards, the JTWC designated the system as ''10W''. Florita remained relatively weak, having an exposed circulation. By August 22, it was upgraded to tropical storm, being designated ''Ma-on'' by the

Severe Tropical Storm Kulap

On September 24, the JTWC released a first report on a low pressure system and because it entered warmer waters and low wind shear, the agency named it ''Invest 96W''. The next day, JMA classified the system as a tropical depression. Hours later, the JTWC followed suit, and designated him ''19W''. The next day, the cyclone intensified and the JTWC in its second bulletin, classified it as a "tropical storm". The JMA followed suit and called it ''Kulap''. The JMA quickly classified it as a "severe tropical storm" but the JTWC went further and upgraded it to a Category 1 typhoon. Upon threatening the Japanese coast, the cyclone continued its course until it was downgraded to a tropical storm, according to bulletins released by the two agencies. By moving to cooler areas and without threatening any habitable areas, the system transitioned into an extratropical cyclone, prompting the agencies to issue their final advisories on the system.


Typhoon Roke (Luis)

On September 27, the JMA began to monitor a weak tropical depression that had developed in the
Philippine Sea The Philippine Sea is a marginal sea of the Western Pacific Ocean east of the Philippine archipelago (hence the name), the largest in the world, occupying an estimated surface area of . The Philippine Sea Plate forms the floor of the sea. Its ...
and had been designated as ''Invest 98W'' by the JTWC. The agency said in a TCFA bulletin that because it was in warmer waters and low shear, there was scope for broader intensification. The prediction was confirmed, and a few hours later, it was classified as a tropical depression, being called ''20W''. The following day, the storm entered the PAGASA's area of responsibility and was called ''Luis'', but it did not directly threaten the Philippines and left the PAGASA's area of responsibility a few hours later. Subsequently, the cyclone gained strength and reached a "tropical storm" according to the second JTWC bulletin. The JMA named the system ''Roke''. Two days later, the JTWC and JMA classified it as a Category 1 typhoon, The intensification did not last long and Roke was downgraded to a tropical storm. Having the same fate as its predecessor Kulap, the JTWC released a final bulletin in which Roke had been downgraded to an extratropical cyclone. However, the cyclone intensified into a subtropical storm according to the JTWC's special bulletin. On October 1, it weakened into a subtropical depression.


Tropical Depression Maymay

On October 9, the JTWC started to monitor a persisting area of convection with a poorly-defined circulation at approximately to the east of
Manila Manila ( , ; fil, Maynila, ), officially the City of Manila ( fil, Lungsod ng Maynila, ), is the capital of the Philippines, and its second-most populous city. It is highly urbanized and, as of 2019, was the world's most densely populate ...
, Philippines. Under a favorable environment of warm sea surface temperatures, low to moderate wind shear, and strong poleward outflow, the system continued to organize before PAGASA upgraded it as a tropical depression, naming it as Maymay, late on October 10. The JMA subsequently followed suit by the next day. Later that same day, the JTWC issued a TCFA on Maymay, noting that the storm's center was tucked beneath the southeast side of an intense but disorganized convection. However, the storm's convective structure was detached from the main center due to a TUTT cell to the northeast of it, which made the storm weaken as it moved northwestwards, prompting the JMA to downgrade Maymay into a low-pressure area on October 12. The PAGASA subsequently followed suit late on the same day, and JTWC cancelled their TCFA by October 13. Though short-lived, Maymay killed two people in

. Within a favorable environment of low wind shear, warm sea surface temperatures, and fair equatorial outflow, the agency would later issue a TCFA for the system four hours later, and initiate advisories on Tropical Depression 21W at 15:00 UTC the same day, noting the convection of the system became compact and symmetrical, and was displaced slightly from the center. The JMA followed suit three hours later. The system soon became severely sheared by the next day as wind shear increased dramatically while it continued moving eastward, before it got embedded into a convergent outer boundary of a deep TUTT cell positioned towards the northwest, helping the storm re-organize and intensify into a tropical storm by October 14. The storm, however, accelerated north-northeastwards at that point, as it got embedded under strong southerly flow within the eastern periphery of a broad subtropical upper-level low that would later become Tropical Storm Haitang, and it soon opened up into a tropical wave later the same day.


Tropical Storm Sonca

Late on October 11, the JTWC started to monitor a scattered area of convection with a poorly-organized broad low-level center at approximately to the west-southwest of
Manila Manila ( , ; fil, Maynila, ), officially the City of Manila ( fil, Lungsod ng Maynila, ), is the capital of the Philippines, and its second-most populous city. It is highly urbanized and, as of 2019, was the world's most densely populate ...
, Philippines. Within a marginally favorable environment of no distinct outflow established, low to moderate wind shear, and warm sea surface temperatures, the system slightly organized by the next day, with flaring convection and its center remaining exposed. Nonetheless, the JMA upgraded the system into a tropical depression on October 13. The JTWC later issued a TCFA on the system on the same day, noting fragmented deep convection was wrapping into its broad low-level center. By the next day, the JTWC initiated advisories on the storm, designating it as 22W. Moving westward, the storm intensified into a tropical storm six hours later, with the JMA naming it as Sonca. Sonca failed to intensify further as its center remained exposed, with deep convection displaced to the west due to strong wind shear, and it soon made landfall on

Tropical Storm Haitang

Since October 14, a non-tropical low with subtropical characteristics started to persist north of
Minamitorishima , also known as Marcus Island, is an isolated Japanese coral atoll in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, located some southeast of Tokyo and east of the closest Japanese island, South Iwo Jima of the Ogasawara Islands, and nearly on a straight line ...
and northwest of then-degenerating Tropical Depression 21W. The low remained stationary, slowly weakened and acquired more tropical characteristics next three days, and JTWC eventually declared a tropical depression early on October 18 when the system had been deepening again and became compact. Although the JMA reported a gale-force non-tropical low at the same time, the system was soon analyzed as a tropical storm and named ''Haitang''. The center of the storm soon became weakly-defined as extensive dry air entrained the storm, prompting the JTWC to downgrade the storm into a tropical depression and issue their final advisory late on the same day. The JMA, however, continued to issue advisories on the storm as it moved northeastwards, and transitioned into an extratropical cyclone on October 19.


Tropical Depression 25W (Obet)

A tropical depression formed northeast of the Philippines on October 18, given the name ''Obet'' by PAGASA. The following day, the JTWC upgraded it to a tropical depression, designating it 25W. It was initially expected to be a tropical storm, but never intensified as expected. According to Municipal Disaster Risk Reduction & Management Office (MDRRMO), two deaths, a fisherman and his wife, were reported due to 25W.


Severe Tropical Storm Nalgae (Paeng)

On October 26, the JTWC reported in its TCFA (Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert) that a low pressure area near the Philippines was able to develop because of warm waters and low wind shear. The agency designated it as ''Invest 93W''. The JMA and the PAGASA then classified the disturbance as a tropical depression, with the latter assigning the name ''Paeng'' to the system. The JTWC upgraded the system to a tropical depression a day later, at 00:00 UTC on October 27, and it was given the designation ''26W''. At the same time, the JMA upgraded the typhoon to a tropical storm, and was named ''Nalgae''. The following day, PAGASA and JTWC classified it as a severe tropical storm approaching the northeast of the Philippines. PAGASA issued danger alerts (Signal No. 3), informing that damage could be registered as Paeng approached the archipelago. On 17:10 UTC on October 28, Nalgae made its first landfall at

Tropical Storm Banyan (Queenie)

On October 29, the JTWC released a first TCFA, reporting that a tropical disturbance, designated as ''Invest 94W'', had formed far from the Philippine Sea. However, hours later, the agency canceled the TCFA over this low-pressure area after it had lost strength. However, the agency released a second TCFA, reporting that the disturbance had re-intensified, and classified the possibility of tropical depression as "high". The JMA went further in a bulletin, and already classified it as a depression. At 21:00 UTC on October 30, the tropical depression was designated ''27W''. Upon entering the
