The name Reming was used for eleven tropical cyclones in the Philippines by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA), and its predecessor, the Philippine Weather Bureau, in the Western Pacific Ocean.
Typhoon Fran (1976) (T7617, 17W, Reming) – a powerful typhoon that made landfall in western Japan and became one of its wettest and most destructive typhoons, killing 169.
Typhoon Norris (1980) (T8012, 13W, Reming) – a relatively strong typhoon that struck Taiwan.
Severe Tropical Storm Warren (1984) (T8423, 26W, Reming) – an erratic system which peaked as a Category 1-equivalent tropical cyclone; significantly affected the Philippines despite staying offshore, causing 73 deaths.
Typhoon Elsie (1992) (T9228, 28W, Reming) – a very strong typhoon which affected no land areas.
Tropical Depression Abel (1996) (30W, Reming) – a tropical depression considered by JTWC as a tropical storm; hit northern Philippines, claiming 8 lives and rendering 7 other people as missing.
Typhoon Xangsane (2000) (T0020, 30W, Reming) – a destructive typhoon which killed 181 people in the Philippines and Taiwan, in addition to another 83 fatalities which came from a plane crash indirectly attributed to it.
Typhoon Durian (2006) (T0621, 24W, Reming) – an intense typhoon that killed almost 1,400 people in the Philippines and another 98 individuals in Vietnam.
Typhoon Hagupit (2014) (T1422, 22W, Ruby) – a strong, late-season typhoon which crossed the central regions of Philippines, causing 18 fatalities.
Like Reming, the name Ruby was also retired by PAGASA. It was replaced by Rosita, which was coincidentally only used once by the said meteorological bureau:
Typhoon Yutu (2018) (T1826, 31W, Rosita) - another Category 5-equivalent super typhoon that gravely affected the Mariana Islands and the Philippines, causing hundreds of millions worth of damage and the loss of 30 lives.
The name Rosita was retired after 2018 and was replaced by Rosal, which was first used during the 2022 season.

The 2006 Pacific typhoon season was a below-average season that produced a total of 23 named storms, 15 typhoons, and six super typhoons. The season ran throughout 2006, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and October. The season's first named storm, Chanchu, developed on May 9, while the season's last named storm, Trami, dissipated on December 20.
The 1995 Pacific typhoon season occurred all year round, unusual in that most tropical cyclones tend to form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean between May and November.
The 1980 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1980, 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. Tropical storms which formed in the entire west Pacific basin were assigned a name by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Tropical depressions that enter or form in the Philippine area of responsibility are assigned a name by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration or PAGASA. This can often result in the same storm having two names.
The 1977 Pacific typhoon season was one of the least active Pacific typhoon seasons on record, with only 19 tropical storms forming. It was also the second of three known typhoon seasons during the satellite era to not produce a Category 5-equivalent super typhoon, sandwiched between the 1974 and 2017 seasons. The season's first storm, Severe Tropical Storm Patsy, formed on March 23 and the last, Typhoon Mary, dissipated on January 2, 1978. With Mary spanning two calendar years, it became the fourth typhoon to do so since 1945. Since then, two other typhoons have achieved this feat.
The 1976 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1976, 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 1975 Pacific typhoon season was one of the deadliest tropical cyclone seasons on record, with nearly 229,000 fatalities occurring during the season. It had no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1975, 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 1974 Pacific typhoon season was the first season on record to not feature a Category 5 equivalent super typhoon; a feat later repeated by the 1977 and 2017 seasons. Even so, the season was overly active, with 32 tropical storms and 16 typhoons being developed this year. It has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1974, 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 1973 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1973, 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 1969 Pacific typhoon season was the fourth least-active season on record. The season had no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1969, 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 1967 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1967, 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 name Isang has been used for sixteen tropical cyclones worldwide: fifteen times by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) in the Western Pacific, and once by the Météo-France in the South-West Indian Ocean.
The 2014 Pacific typhoon season was a slightly below average season, featuring 23 tropical storms, 11 typhoons, 8 super typhoons, and 7 Category 5 typhoons. The season's peak months August and September saw minimal activity caused by an unusually strong and a persistent suppressing phase of the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO). The season ran throughout 2014, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and October. The season began with the development of Tropical Storm Lingling on January 18, and ended after Tropical Storm Jangmi which dissipated on January 1 of the next year.
Tropical Storm Merbok, known in the Philippines as Tropical Depression Violeta, was a weak, but destructive tropical storm which worsened the conditions in the Philippines, previously affected by Typhoon Muifa (2004), just 2 days after that storm. This is also the first tropical cyclone recognized by the Japan Meteorological Agency, but not Joint Typhoon Warning Center, since Changmi in 2002. The fortieth tropical cyclone and twenty-ninth named storm of the very active 2004 Pacific typhoon season, the origins of Merbok can be traced from a disturbance in the Philippine Sea early on November 22, with the PAGASA first issuing advisories as Tropical Depression Violeta, to the east of Baler, Aurora. The JMA followed suit, assigning the name Merbok as it strengthened to a tropical storm; however, the PAGASA held the system as a tropical depression. The storm soon made landfall on the night of the same day, while gradually weakening over the high terrains of Luzon. The weakened system emerged off the northwest coast of the country before the last advisory was issued by the two agencies. The remnants moved to the northwest, before dissipating, southwest of Taiwan.
The name Luding was used for ten tropical cyclones by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) and its predecessor, the Philippine Weather Bureau, in the Western Pacific Ocean.
