2024 Pacific typhoon season

The 2024 Pacific Typhoon Season, which commenced on February 26, 2024, and continues to the present day, has been marked by notable cyclonic activity in the western Pacific Ocean. Notably, the season began later than usual, starting in late February. This unusual duration underscores the unpredictability and variability of tropical cyclone seasons in the Pacific basin.
In March 6, 2024, two Tropical Depressions (TD) began to form simultaneously, with one slightly closer to the other. By March 9, the two depressions merged, forming a single tropical cyclone. Fortunately, this cyclone dissipated just two days later, sparing the region from further impact.
One of the defining features of the 2024 season was the emergence of Typhoon Ray, widely regarded as the strongest storm of the season and classified as a hypercane due to its unprecedented intensity. With maximum sustained winds reaching an astonishing 1050 km/h (655 mph) sustained over a remarkable 124-minute period, Typhoon Ray left a lasting impact on the region, highlighting the destructive potential of extreme weather events in the Pacific.
