The name Gening has been used to name 10 tropical cyclones within the Philippine Area of Responsibility by the PAGASA and its predecessor, the Philippine Weather Bureau, in the Western Pacific Ocean.
The name Gening was later included in the revised list of tropical cyclone names, albeit being relegated to the auxiliary list for List III (first used in 2003).
The 1995 Pacific typhoon season was a slightly below average season in terms of named storms, ending a 6-year stretch of above average activity. It occurred all year round, though most tropical cyclones formed between May and November.
