2020 West Pacific Hall of Fame Nominees
Like with the Atlantic, we have some storms that are good, but a tie on some others. These 10 got 3 or more votes:


 * Cobra '44


 * Ida '58


 * Nancy '61


 * Gay '89


 * Fengshen '08


 * Fitow '13


 * Rammasun '14


 * Nock-Ten '16


 * Lekima '19

But we've got 12 with 2, so we'll need to remove 2 of them to get to 20 nominees:
 * Hagbis '19
 * Tropical Storm Lucille (1960)
 * Typhoon Ophelia (1960) Ryan1000 18:01, January 5, 2020 (UTC) ~  ☃ Steve ❄   Message Me  My Edits  📧  18:57, January 8, 2020 (UTC)

 * Typhoon Ketsana (2009)
 * Typhoon Lionrock (2016)
 * Typhoon Meranti (2016)
 * Typhoon Jebi (2018)

Alright, looks like Ioke and Ophelia '60 will have to wait until later. Forrest of 1983 also got 2, but we'll keep him because of it's record intensification. That being said, like with the Atlantic, here are the 20 nominees for the 2020 WPac Hall of Fame, so we each vote for 10 of these, and the 10 with the most votes get inducted:

2020 West Pacific Hall of Fame Inductees
Like with the Atlantic, we got fairly good consensus on a lot of storms (8 in this case), but we had a couple extras with 2. The following storms got 3 or more votes and will be inducted for 2020: But these four storms had 2 votes, and we can only have two of them, so let's try to narrow it down some more: Looks like Meranti and Nock-Ten each got 2, so we'll include them. My top 5 most notable among these 10 are these:
 * Typhoon Cobra
 * Typhoon Ida (1958)
 * Typhoon Nancy (1961)
 * Typhoon Wanda (1962)
 * Typhoon Gay (1989)
 * Typhoon Fengshen (2008)
 * Typhoon Meranti
 * Typhoon Nock-Ten
 * Typhoon Lekima (2019)
 * Typhoon Hagbis (2019)
 * Typhoon Fitow (2013) Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  02:59, January 13, 2020 (UTC)
 * Typhoon Meranti (2016) Ryan1000 02:26, January 13, 2020 (UTC) Jas (Anonymous 2.0) (talk) 08:15, January 13, 2020 (UTC)
 * Typhoon Nock-Ten (2016) Andrew  Talk To Me  Contribs  Mail Me  02:59, January 13, 2020 (UTC) Jas (Anonymous 2.0) (talk) 08:15, January 13, 2020 (UTC)
 * Typhoon Jebi (2018) Ryan1000 02:26, January 13, 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) Typhoon Ida (1958)
 * 2) Typhoon Fengshen (2008)
 * 3) Typhoon Gay (1989)
 * 4) Typhoon Nancy (1961)
 * 5) Typhoon Lekima (2019)

Ida was one of Japan's deadliest typhoons as well as one of the strongest typhoons on record. While Fengshen technically killed more than Ida, it was less significant in other ways, and a lot of the deaths from that storm were offshore when it sunk the Princess of the Stars ship. Nancy was more damaging but much less deadly than Ida, let alone than Fengshen and Gay. Ryan1000 03:11, January 14, 2020 (UTC)
