Forum:2011 Pacific typhoon season/November

Tropical Depression 24W
A new one is out there, and it looks like it could become Washi as it heads northward through the South China Sea. Ryan1000 12:00, November 7, 2011 (UTC)

probably not expext to be a td and no more allanjeffs

Not completely. It has a fair chance of becoming Washi, even if only briefly, before heading into Haninan Island by tomorrow. Floding could be a concern there. Ryan1000 00:45, November 8, 2011 (UTC

WPac's been unusually silent this year. We had only 19 named storms this season. That would tie 1977 for the third least active season ever, behind only last year and 1998, asuming we get nothing else. Worldwide, we have had only 63 storms. We're in a similar dilema to what happened last year at this time. We are scrambling for more activity, but it's just not there. Last year the Pacific killed us, and this year it was partly WPac and EPac, and mostly the NIO and SHem. Ryan1000 21:59, November 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, the lack of activity hasn't stopped this year form having an above average amount of intense TCs (category 3 or more). I counted 21 intense TC's (23 if you include Zelia and Rina who both got very very close), the average is 20. Yqt1001 02:14, November 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * EPac kinda helped us out in that regard(6MH's). ATL had only 3, NIO had 0, and the SHem had 4. The rest came from here. It's been an inactive worldwide season in terms of numbers, but if you use ACE or storm strength, then we were actually pretty good. Ryan1000 16:31, November 23, 2011 (UTC)
