Two days later, Winnie became the 4th Super Typhoon of the season with peak winds of 160 mph. A few scattered showers are possible this afternoon. Highs will be in the upper 70s to the mid-80s.

[30] Winds also gusted in excess of 95 km/h (60 mph) in some areas.[31].

[11], From May 26–29, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration tracked the storm, and named it Bining.[12].
THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: Deeper moisture and an easterly wave will be just to our west near the Mississippi River. The low strengthened as it became more organized over the next two days. As the nearby Typhoon Amber started to make landfall over Taiwan, a strong southern inflow from Typhoon Amber pulled Cass northwards, in an effect known as the Fujiwhara effect. [38], Tropical Depression 26W developed out of an area of disturbed weather located near the Mariana Islands on September 29. Afternoon highs will be in the mid-70s to the lower 80s from northwest to southeast.

The center of Paulette is expected to move very close to Bermuda on Sunday night and Monday.

Tropical Storms formed in the entire west Pacific basin were assigned a name by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.

One of the fatalities from the storm was that of a United States soldier stationed in Iwakuni. Hannah was not considered a tropical storm by the Japan Meteorological Agency.

Later that day, Oliwa crossed the International Date Line,[32] and continued to slowly strengthen to become a typhoon on September 8. Nestor intensified into a category 1 typhoon on June 7, as it started to affect the Mariana Islands.

[42], The tenth of eleven tropical cyclones to attain super typhoon intensity in the western North Pacific during 1997, Keith formed at low latitudes in the Marshall Islands. Scott Martin: Potential tropical storm may affect Alabama Gulf Coast. [11], From July 22–26, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration tracked the storm, and named it Elang. On June 15, Nestor transitioned into an extratropical cyclone. Additional strengthening is very likely and Paulette should become a hurricane later today.

Afternoon highs will be in the mid-70s to the mid-80s. THE WORK WEEK: Tropical moisture will begin moving into Alabama from the south along with the outer rain bands of TD-19 on Monday. It will experience gradual weakening over the weekend and will become post-tropical possibly by Sunday afternoon.

They were Isa, Nestor, Rosie, Winnie, Bing, Oliwa (from Central Pacific), Ginger, Ivan, Joan, Keith, and Paka (from Central Pacific). It recurved to the northeast, and shortly after reaching its westernmost point Jimmy attained its peak intensity of 55 mph on April 24.

[12] In China, Victor killed 65 people and caused $241 million in damages. Late on October 3, Hank weakened to a tropical depression and was initially thought to have made landfall; however, satellite analysis showed that the center did not cross land until October 5, shortly before dissipating.

We could see a lessening in our chance for showers and storms on Sunday with the approach of Tropical Depression 19, but rain chances will remain elevated, mainly for the afternoon and evening. [14] One person drowned after being knocked off his boat by rough seas while trying to secure it at port. Continued strengthening occurred at a climatological rate until it was upgraded to a typhoon on September 25. [21] The storm was the only tropical cyclone during the season to not form from the monsoon trough. Agricultural industries sustained the most severe damage, as thousands of animals drowned in the storm. Storms that form east of the Date Line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1997 Pacific hurricane season. [49], Typhoon Paka first impacted the Marshall Islands, where it dropped heavy rainfall and left $80 million in damage (1997 USD, $109 million 2009 USD). It is projected to move generally westward for at least the next five days.

By Scott Martin. It underwent eyewall replacement cycles from August 25 through August 27, and tracked across Taiwan/Taipei with maximum sustained winds of 95 knots, then through the Formosa Strait into China as a minimal typhoon.

This is the same list used for the 1993 season. By August 26, Tropical Storm Cass formed to the west-southwest, which accelerated Amber's forward motion to the northwest due to a Fujiwara interaction. Over the next 24 hours, the depression stalled in response to weak steering currents before a subtropical ridge developed to the north and caused the system to move quickly to the west. 10W was upgraded to Tropical Storm Rosie and became a Category 5 Super Typhoon on July 22.

[35] The remnants of Ginger persisted for two more days as it rapidly tracked towards the Western United States. By September 1, Bing bypassed the Bonin Islands.
