Tropical Storm Cimaron, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Isang, was a weak tropical storm, with only a pressure of 1000 hPa and 45 mph. It formed and made landfall in the Philippines, especially Luzon, and China, as well as affecting Southern Taiwan during its nearby passage. Cimaron started as an area of low-pressure near Eastern Luzon. The disturbance indicated that it would intensify gradually in the coming days. PAGASA later named the depression Isang after they started issuing advisories. JTWC would later give its identifier as Tropical Depression 08W. 08W made landfall at the eastern tip of Northern Luzon, bringing heavy rainfall over the area. It began to enter the Bashi Channel, where environmental conditions were favorable to intensify the depression. On May 17, 08W further intensified into a tropical storm, prompting the JMA to name the storm Cimaron. Cimaron turned northwest and entered the South China Sea. Cimaron made its 2nd and last landfall in Zhangpu County in China on July 18. Rapid weakening ensued and all agencies declared Cimaron that it had dissipated on the same day.
