Typhoon Chan-hom was first identified as a disorganized area of low pressure on May 2, 2009 situated roughly 305 km (190 mi) southeast of Nha Trang, Vietnam in the South China Sea. Deep convection was mainly confined to the northern portion of the system; however, a band of cloud cover had begun to wrap around the center of circulation during the afternoon. [1] Later that day, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) began monitoring the developing low as a tropical depression. [2] Hours later, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert for the system as convection consolidated around the center of circulation. Further development was anticipated as the storm slowly moved through an area of warm sea surface temperatures and low wind shear, conditions favoring tropical cyclone formation. [3] Early on May 3, the JTWC classified the system as Tropical Depression 02W. [4] Following the formation of a central dense overcast, [5] both the JTWC and JMA upgraded the depression to a tropical storm, at which time it received the name Chan-hom. [2] [4] Situated to the north of a weak subtropical ridge, little movement was expected over the next two days. [5]

Modest strengthening took place as Chan-hom drifted slowly towards the north before taking a more northeasterly path. [2] [4] By the morning of May 5, the storm developed a symmetrical cloud cover with notable banding features. [5] According to the JMA, maximum sustained winds within the cyclone had reached 95 km/h (59 mph), prompting the agency to upgrade Chan-hom to a severe tropical storm. [2] On May 6, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) began issuing advisories on Chan-hom as it moved into their area of responsibility and assigned it the local Philippine name Emong. [6] Within hours of PAGASA's first advisory, the JTWC assessed Chan-hom to have attained winds of 120 km/h (75 km/h), equivalent to a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale. [4] The JMA followed suit six hours later, classifying the system as a minimal typhoon. [2] Further intensification took place as the typhoon's outflow improved in response to a mid-latitude trough over central China. [5]

Several hours before making landfall along the western coast of Luzon on May 7, an eye-feature began to develop. Satellite imagery depicted a depression in the cloud cover over the center of circulation as well as a broken ring of deep convection. [5] In light of this information, the JTWC assessed Chan-hom to have reached its peak intensity at this time, packing sustained winds of 160 km/h (99 mph) and an estimated barometric pressure of 956 mbar (hPa; 28.23 inHg). [4] However, the JMA stated that the typhoon was slightly weaker, having maximum winds of 120 km/h (75 km/h) and a pressure of 975 mbar (hPa; 28.79 inHg). [2] Just prior to crossing the coastline, the storm began to weaken as wind shear increased. Within hours of moving over the mountainous terrain of northern Luzon, the cyclone quickly diminished. The low-level circulation became detached from convection and pressure readings over land indicated a minimum pressure around 1004 mbar (hPa; 29.65 inHg). Although wind shear remained at unfavorably high levels, [5] Chan-hom maintained tropical storm intensity through its crossing of Luzon through the end of May 8. [2] [4]

By May 9, all that remained of Chan-hom was an exposed low-level circulation with convection displaced over 185 km (115 mi) to the east. With the addition of dry air entering the system, the storm was not expected to regain strength as it began to take a northward turn. [5] Around this time, PAGASA issued their final advisory on the system as they assessed it to have degenerated into a non-convective remnant low-pressure system. [7] The JTWC issued their initial final advisory on Chan-hom during that morning; [5] however, later analysis determined that the system remained a tropical depression until the morning of May 11. [4] The JMA and JTWC continued to monitor the remnants of Chan-hom through May 13, at which time its low-level circulation collapsed to the southeast of Okinawa, Japan. [2] [4] However, the remnant low of Chan-hom briefly regenerated into a tropical depression on May 14, before finally dissipating on the next day.

Preparations

Vietnam

As Chan-hom formed in the South China Sea Vietnamese officials warned 17,793 vessels, with a total of 83,032 fishermen on board the ships, to avoid areas near the tropical storm. Fourteen provinces along the country's coastline were warned by the coast guard about the storm by May 5. All ships that were already at port were prohibited from leaving shore due to high seas up to 7 m (23 ft). [8]

Philippines

PAGASA warned residents living in low-lying areas and near mountain slopes to take all necessary precautions against possible flashfloods and landslides. President Arroyo instructed the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) to provide public hourly updates on the entry of typhoon Emong. The Pangasinan Disaster Coordinating Council issued advisories on Pangasinan to be ready for Chan-hom as the storm was continuously moving in the province. PAGASA also warned those living under warning signal no. 2 and 3 to be alert for possible landslides, flashfloods and storm surge. These storm signals remained mostly in force over Northern and Central Luzon, where PAGASA forecasted that Emong would make landfall on May 7.

Impact

Vietnam

As of May 7, no known structural impact was caused by Chan-hom in Vietnam. [9] A fishing boat from Lý Sơn Island, Quảng Ngãi was capsized near the Paracel Islands, and all 11 fishermen were rescued by Chinese Navy. [10]

Philippines

A 48-hour rainfall was recorded throughout Luzon from May 6 to 8 peaking on May 7. Winds of 85–140 km/h combined with heavy rain damaged the provinces of Abra, Quirino, Cagayan, Apayao, Ilocos Norte, Aurora (further, these provinces received more than 200mm in 24 hours.) and Zambales (received more than 135 mm in 24 hours). Rain was also heavy over Pampanga (receiving 145 mm), Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Bulacan, Bataan, Metro Manila and parts of southern Luzon. Moderate rain was also experienced over Quezon province and Bicol Region. (Cagayan and Isabela are not specified but are also flooded which can mean it may have experienced more than 50 mm of rain. Moreover, Cagayan River flooded). As of May 10, about 65,000 people were left homeless in Ilocos Region and in Cordillera region.

In Bataan, the flood was up to the waistline. Some residents were also evacuated. As of May 8, at least 25 people were confirmed to have been killed by flooding and mudslides produced by Emong. [11] Chan-hom further affected 4,000 people, caused 11 landslides, cost PHP863,528 worth of crops in 55 hectares of land in Zambales and PHP4.4 million worth of transmission lines in Pangasinan. [12]

On May 9, the number of fatalities increased to 26. Western Pangasinan was put under a state of calamity, with the whole province registering at least 16 deaths. Deaths included those who drowned, buried under their collapsed homes and got hit by flying debris. In the town of Anda in Pangasinan, 90 percent of houses had their roofs blown away, with mango trees uprooted and cultured fishes washed away to the sea. In Ifugao, at least 10 deaths were blamed on landslides, while the bridges linking Lamut and Bagabag, Nueva Vizcaya collapsed. In Isabela, "all work animals" in San Mateo drowned when the town river overflowed. [13]

The National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) damage report update on 6:00 pm May 19 put dead at 60, injured at 53 and missing at 13 and damage worth 1,280,897,383 pesos of which 750,403,562 were in agriculture and 530,493,821 in infrastructure. It further affected 385,833 persons living in 615 barangays of 59 municipalities and 7 cities of 12 provinces of Region I (La Union and Pangasinan), Region II (Nueva Vizcaya, Isabela, Quirino and Cagayan), Region III (Zambales and Pampanga) and Cordillera Administrative Region (Ifugao, Kalinga, Mountain Province and Benguet) as well as damaged 56,160 houses of which 23,444 are totally destroyed and 32,716 partially damaged, [14] and induced 11 landslides in Zambales and Ifugao. [15]

Emong (Chan-hom) directly passed through these provinces: Pangasinan, La Union, Ilocos Sur, Benguet, Nueva Vizcaya, Ifugao, Mountain Province, Kalinga and Isabela.

Aftermath

Philippines

As of May 10, roughly 2.3 million Philippine pesos (US$48,000) in relief expenses had been used. The National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) supplied 1,250 sacks of rice to the affected areas. The Department of Social Welfare and Development reported that PHP 2.7 million (US$57,000) worth of relief supplies was stockpiled and ready for distribution. The Armed Forces of the Philippines deployed several teams to assist with recovery efforts and debris removal. On May 8, two UH-1 Iroquois helicopters were provided to conduct aerial surveys of the damage in Isabela, Ifugao and Aurora Provinces. [16]

The 2009 Pacific typhoon season was a below average season that spawned only 22 named storms, 13 typhoons, and five super typhoons. Despite this, it was a very deadly season, with the Philippines having experienced its deadliest season in decades due to the impact of typhoons Ketsana and Parma, while typhoon Morakot went on to become the deadliest storm to impact Taiwan in its modern history. The first half of the season was very quiet, whereas the second half of the season was extremely active. The season's first named storm, Kujira, developed on May 3, while the season's last named storm, Nida, dissipated on December 3.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Timeline of the 2009 Pacific typhoon season</span>

This timeline documents all of the events of the 2009 Pacific typhoon season which was the period that tropical cyclones formed in the Western Pacific Ocean during 2009, with most of the tropical cyclones forming between May and November. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator between 100°E and the International Date Line. Tropical storms that form in the entire Western Pacific basin are assigned a name by the Japan Meteorological Agency. Tropical depressions that form in this basin are given a number with a "W" suffix by the United States' Joint Typhoon Warning Center. In addition, the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) assigns names to tropical cyclones that enter or form in the Philippine area of responsibility. These names, however, are not in common use outside of the Philippines.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Typhoon Kujira (2009)</span> Pacific typhoon in 2009

Typhoon Kujira, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Dante, was first reported by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) on April 28. It was the fourth depression and the first typhoon of the season. The disturbance dissipated later that day however it regenerated early on April 30 within the southern islands of Luzon. It was then designated as a Tropical Depression during the next morning by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) and the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), with PAGASA assigning the name Dante to the depression. However the JTWC did not designate the system as a depression until early on May 2 which was after the depression had made landfall on the Philippines. Later that day Dante was upgraded to a Tropical Storm and was named as Kujira by the JMA. The cyclone started to rapidly intensify becoming a typhoon early on May 4, and then reaching its peak winds of 155 km/h (100 mph) (10-min), 215 km/h (135 mph) (1-min) later that day after a small clear eye had developed.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Tropical Storm Mujigae</span> Pacific tropical storm in 2009

Tropical Storm Mujigae, known in the Philippines as Tropical Depression Maring was a tropical storm that affected the Philippines, China, Hong Kong, and Vietnam in September 2009. Mujigae originated from an area of convection that developed along with a monsoon trough with favorable conditions on 8 September. The disturbance organized to a tropical depression and was assigned the names 14W by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center and Maring by PAGASA later that day. Tropical Depression 14W would rapidly develop and attain tropical storm status by the JMA and be assigned the name Mujigae on 10 September. Mujigae soon encountered unfavorable conditions with wind shear and make landfall in Hainan Island on 11 September and Vietnam on 12 September before rapidly weakening and dissipating.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">2011 Pacific typhoon season</span>

The 2011 Pacific typhoon season was a below average season that produced a total of 21 named storms, 8 typhoons, and four super typhoons. This season was much more active than the previous season, although both seasons were below the Pacific typhoon average of 26. The season ran throughout 2011, though most tropical cyclone tend to develop between May and October. The season's first named storm, Aere, developed on May 7 while the season's last named storm, Washi dissipated on December 19.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">2015 Pacific typhoon season</span>

The 2015 Pacific typhoon season was a slightly above average season that produced twenty-seven tropical storms, eighteen typhoons, and nine super typhoons. The season ran throughout 2015, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and November. The season's first named storm, Mekkhala, developed on January 15, while the season's last named storm, Melor, dissipated on December 17. The season saw at least one named tropical system forming in each of every month, the first time since 1965. Similar to the previous season, this season saw a high number of super typhoons. Accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) during 2015 was extremely high, the third highest since 1970, and the 2015 ACE has been attributed in part to anthropogenic warming, and also the 2014-16 El Niño event, that led to similarly high ACE values in the East Pacific.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Typhoon Conson (2010)</span> Pacific typhoon in 2010

Typhoon Conson, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Basyang, was the second tropical cyclone during the 2010 Pacific typhoon season to impact the Philippines. Developing out of a tropical disturbance east of the Philippines on July 11, 2010, Conson quickly developed as it tracked nearly due west. Favorable environmental conditions, such as low wind shear and warm sea surface temperatures, allowed the system to intensify into a severe tropical storm by July 12. Around the same time, the JTWC assessed the storm to have been equivalent to a Category 1 hurricane. The following day, Conson struck Quezon Province with winds of 100 km/h (60 mph) before weakening. After crossing the archipelago, the storm entered the South China Sea where it was able to re-strengthen. By July 16, Conson attained typhoon status as it neared the southern Chinese island of Hainan. After brushing the island at peak intensity with sustained winds estimated at 130 km/h (80 mph), the storm weakened in the Gulf of Tonkin due to less favorable conditions. The storm eventually made landfall near Hanoi, Vietnam on July 17 and dissipated the following day.

The storm was the 41st depression and the 8th typhoon in the 2013 typhoon season. Typhoon Nari was a deadly typhoon that made landfall in the Philippines and Vietnam. Nari made landfall on October 14, 2013 as a moderate category 1 typhoon.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Timeline of the 2015 Pacific typhoon season</span>

This timeline documents all of the events of the 2015 Pacific typhoon season. Most of the tropical cyclones formed between May and November. The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator between 100°E and the International Date Line. This area, called the Western Pacific basin, is the responsibility of the Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA). They host and operate the Regional Specialized Meteorological Center (RSMC), located in Tokyo. The Japanese Meteorological Agency (JMA) is also responsible for assigning names to all tropical storms that are formed within the basin. However, any storm that enters or forms in the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) will be named by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) using a local name. Also of note - the Western Pacific basin is monitored by the United States' Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), which gives all Tropical depressions a number with a "W" suffix.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Tropical Storm Linfa (2015)</span> Pacific typhoon in 2015

Severe Tropical Storm Linfa, known in the Philippines as Severe Tropical Storm Egay, was a tropical cyclone that affected the northern Philippines, Taiwan and southern China in early July 2015. The tenth named storm of the annual typhoon season, Linfa developed on July 1 over in the Philippine Sea. It moved erratically westward toward the Philippines, eventually striking the island of Luzon on July 4. Linfa weakened across the island, but reorganized over the South China Sea. It turned northward and strengthened to near typhoon intensity, or winds of 120 km/h (75 mph), but weakened as it curved to the northwest toward southern China. On July 9, the storm made landfall along the Chinese province of Guangdong, dissipating the next day west of Hong Kong.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Typhoon Koppu</span> Pacific typhoon in 2015

Typhoon Koppu, known in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Lando, was a powerful and devastating tropical cyclone that struck Luzon in October 2015. It was the twenty-fourth named storm and the fifteenth typhoon of the annual typhoon season. Similar to Goni earlier in the year, Koppu originated from a tropical disturbance east of the Mariana Islands on October 10. Moving briskly west, the system consolidated into a tropical depression the following day and further into a tropical storm on October 13. Situated over the warm waters of the Philippine Sea, Koppu quickly deepened. The storm reached its peak intensity on October 17 with ten-minute sustained winds of 185 km/h (115 mph) according to the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). The Joint Typhoon Warning Center assessed Koppu to have been a Category 4-equivalent super typhoon with one-minute sustained winds of 240 km/h (150 mph). The storm subsequently made landfall at this strength near Casiguran, Philippines. Rapid weakening ensued due to interaction with the mountainous terrain of Luzon and the disheveled core of Koppu emerged over the South China Sea on October 19. Unfavorable environmental conditions inhibited reorganization and the system diminished to a tropical depression on October 21.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">2022 Pacific typhoon season</span>

The 2022 Pacific typhoon season was the third consecutive season to have below average tropical cyclone activity, with twenty-five named storms forming. Of the tropical storms, ten became typhoons, and three would intensify into super typhoons. The season saw near-average activity by named storm count, although many of the storms were weak and short-lived, particularly towards the end of the season. This low activity was caused by an unusually strong La Niña that had persisted from 2020. The season's first named storm, Malakas, developed on April 6, while the last named storm, Pakhar, dissipated on December 12. The season's first typhoon, Malakas, reached typhoon status on April 12. The season ran throughout 2022, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and October. Tropical storms Megi and Nalgae were responsible for more than half of the casualties, while typhoons Hinnamnor and Nanmadol both caused $1 billion in damages.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Typhoon Flo (1993)</span> Pacific typhoon in 1993

Typhoon Flo, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Kadiang, was a catastrophic and deadly minimal typhoon that hit the northern Philippines during October 1993. It also caused the largest 72-hour forecast error for the year due to its interaction with the nearby Super Typhoon Ed. The twenty-seventh depression, twenty-second named storm and the eleventh typhoon of the 1993 Pacific typhoon season, Flo originated from an area of convection that was embedded from a monsoon trough during September 28. Two days later, a tropical depression formed within this trough, to the west of Guam. Slowly organizing, it remained a tropical depression until on October 2, when it strengthened to a tropical storm and was given the name Flo by the Japan Meteorological Agency. Slight wind shear from nearby Ed inhibited development; however, it intensified to a minimal typhoon as it neared the coastline of Luzon. On October 3, it made landfall near the Isabela-Aurora in its peak. It then crossed the country while weakening, and moved ashore near the South China Sea the next morning. It then unexpectedly moved back to the country due to its interaction with Ed, and it moved back to the Philippine Sea on October 17 before accelerating to the south of Japan. It then became extratropical on the next day.
