Tropical Depression 01W A circulation started to develop and spawned a tropical disturbance near the equator but east of the
International Dateline on December 30, 1994. The system remained stationary for several days until it finally gathered some warm waters and low to moderate windshear on January 5. With that, the JTWC classified it as Tropical Depression 01W as it crossed the basin early on January 7. Moving northeastwards, it entered an area of high vertical windshear, cool waters and weak convection and dissipated on January 9.
Tropical Storm Chuck Chuck stayed in the ocean.
Tropical Storm Deanna (Auring) At May 28, a low pressure area formed in the Pacific Ocean. A few days later, it moved towards the Philippines. Deanna then did a loop in the northeastern South China Sea after it passed through Phllippines. At June 8, Deanna moved towards Taiwan in an unusual west coast. It then brought heavy rain. Agricultural losses reached NT$410 million (US$15.5 million). 16 people were reported dead, with moderate damage from flooding. On July 23, 1995, when the typhoon passed South Korea, a
rogue wave hitting
Pusan Harbor, the largest port in South Korea, which resulted in two ships colliding. Damage in Japan totaled to ¥2.8 billion (US$30 million).
Tropical Depression 06W 6W passed close to the Philippines.
Severe Tropical Storm Gary On July 27, an area of low pressure near the Philippines later strengthened into Tropical Depression Gary. On July 28, Gary further strengthened into a tropical storm. After bringing torrential downpours and flooding to the Philippines, Gary moved northwest into the South China Sea. Gary intensified even further into a severe tropical storm on July 30 and made landfall near
Shantou on July 31. On August 2, after moving inland, Gary dissipated. Gary claimed four lives in Shantou. Near Taiwan, four fishing vessels sank, with two people dead and 19 others missing. Losses were at 200 million RMB (US$24 million). The
Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) also upgraded the disturbance to a tropical depression later that day. At the same time, the
Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) named 12W, Gening from its list of pacific typhoon names. On August 26, Gening intensified into a tropical storm and was named
Kent by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. One person was killed in a landslide and another drowned in a flood. Seven more people were killed by Typhoon Oscar throughout the country. Three other people were also listed as missing due to the storm. Losses from the storm throughout Japan amounted to 612.3 million yen (US$6.7 million).
Typhoon Polly (Ising) Polly recurved out to sea.
Typhoon Ryan (Luding) The monsoon trough spawned a tropical depression over the
South China Sea on September 14. It drifted northwestward, becoming a tropical storm on the 16th and a typhoon on the 19th. As Ryan turned northeastward, it rapidly intensified to become a super typhoon on the 21st at 155 mph, the first ever to form and reach that intensity in the South China Sea. The super typhoon passed south of Taiwan, and weakened to a 110 mph typhoon as it made landfall on southwestern
Japan on the 23rd. Ryan caused 5 deaths on its path. Damage is Japan was very severe with losses totaling ¥35.4 billion (US$377 million).
Severe Tropical Storm Sibyl (Mameng) 108 fatalities and $38.5 million in damage (1995 USD) can be attributed to Tropical Storm Sibyl as it crossed the central
Philippines on September 29. Sibyl actually strengthened while passing through the
archipelago due to the contraction of the wind field.
Tropical Depression 21W 21W did not last long.
Tropical Depression 22W 22W was only tracked by the JTWC.
Tropical Depression 23W 23W lasted a day.
Severe Tropical Storm Ted Ted hit China. 61 people were killed and economic losses were 3.6 billion RMB (US$433 million). On the other hand, the HKO report states that the death toll in the country was over 160.
Typhoon Angela (Rosing) The monsoon trough that developed Yvette and Zack spawned another tropical depression on October 25. It moved to the west, organizing very slowly to become a tropical storm on the 26th. 2 days later Angela became a typhoon, and from the 31st to the 1st Angela rapidly intensified to a super typhoon. It maintained that intensity as it moved westward, hitting the Philippines on the 2nd as a slightly weaker storm. Angela continued to the west-northwest, where upper-level winds caused it to dissipate on the 7th over the Gulf of Tonkin. Angela caused 9.33 billion Philippine Pesos (1995 pesos) in damage across the Philippines, resulting in 882 fatalities.
Tropical Storm Brian Brian stayed away from land.
Tropical Storm Colleen A
non-tropical low area developed well far to the northwest of Hawaii on November 9. The low pressure area began slowly acquiring subtropical characteristics as it moved southwest before crossing the International Date line on November 11, as the JTWC issued a
TCFA later on the same day. Early on the 12th the JTWC began advisories on Tropical Storm Colleen as the low pressure area acquired enough tropical characteristics, Not long after being designated, Colleen then moved westward as strong wind shear disheveled the small storm, causing it to dissipate on November 13. The Japanese Meteorological Agency did not track Colleen as a tropical storm.
Tropical Depression 32W/33W (Sendang) Tropical Depressions 32W and 33W, though operationally treated as two separate cyclones, were in actuality one system; a relative rare event that shows the difficulties of tracking poorly organized storms. 32 developed on November 30 east of the Philippines. Operationally it was said to have tracked to the northeast and dissipated, with a second area of convection to the west becoming 33W. 32's convection became disorganized with the shower activity heading northeastward, but the low level circulation remained behind and headed westward to be called 33. The depression headed west-southwest, where it brought heavy rain to the Philippines on the 4th and 5th, killing 14 people. The most recent example prior to this system that had two names was Tropical Storm Ken-Lola in the
1989 Pacific typhoon season.
Tropical Depression 34W 34W stayed at sea.
Severe Tropical Storm Dan (Trining) Dan brought rains to the eastern Philippines during the last days of 1995. == Storm names ==
