Outlook for the 2025 Typhoon Season

The 2024 typhoon season was the fifth consecutive season with below-average numbers of tropical storms and typhoons.  Of the 26 named storms that formed last year, only 13 became typhoons.  Normal is 26 named storms but with 16 of those becoming typhoons.  The West Pacific has been quiet so far this year, with not a single depression or named storm as of the second week of April.  Early indications are that 2025 will be another relatively quiet typhoon season.

Some of the factors that StormGeo's Typhoon and Long-Range Forecasters evaluated to determine this forecast include:

  • La Nina/El Nino 
  • European Model Seasonal Forecast
  • Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD)
  • Water Temperatures
