The 1942 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1942, but most tropical cyclones tend to form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean between June and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator and west of the international date line. Storms that form east of the date line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1942 Pacific hurricane season.
There were 30 tropical cyclones in the western Pacific in 1942.[1] Nine tropical storms are reported in August, which made it the most active August known at the time.[2]
The storm didn't really affect that much but it affected the Caroline Islands during late-January 1942.[3]
Tropical Storm Two
Tropical storm (SSHWS)
Duration
April 8 – April 13
Peak intensity
100 km/h (65 mph) (1-min)
This storm is very similar to Tropical Storm One. It has the very same track but it is slightly towards the east and affected the Caroline Islands.[4]
Tropical Storm Nine
Tropical storm (SSHWS)
Duration
July 28 – July 30
Peak intensity
100 km/h (65 mph) (1-min)
A storm formed north of the Philippines on July 28. It impacted Hainan and southern China on July 29–30, as it was dissipating.[5]
Tropical Storm Thirty
Tropical storm (SSHWS)
Duration
December 13 – December 17
Peak intensity
100 km/h (65 mph) (1-min)
The final storm of the season developed on December 13 east of Mindanao, Philippines or in the Philippine Sea. It moved in a fast, northward direction. On the 15th, it moved west, and then west the next day. It finally dissipated early on the December 17, due to vertical windshear.[6]
