context_page_description: Typhoon Damrey, known in the Philippines as Severe Tropical Storm Ramil, was a strong tropical cyclone that affected Vietnam during early November 2017. Damrey first originated as a tropical depression over the Philippine archipelago of Visayas on October 31. Emerging to the South China Sea few days later, the system strengthened into the second deadliest and twenty-third named storm of the 2017 Pacific typhoon season. Rapidly intensifying, Damrey strengthened into the tenth typhoon on November 3, reaching its peak strength as a Category 2 in the same day. Damrey made landfall over Khánh Hoà, Vietnam during the next day as it rapidly weakened, and fully dissipated on November 5. Damrey was the strongest typhoon to strike South-Central Vietnam since 2001's Typhoon Lingling.
  Strong winds, heavy rainfall and result severe flooding in Central Vietnam by the typhoon killed 142 people and total damage reached over US$1 billion. Damrey made landfall in central Vietnam as the region hosted the 2017 APEC Summit in Da Nang.
