List of retired Pacific typhoon names

[2] The practice of retiring significant names was started during 1955 by the United States Weather Bureau in the Northern Atlantic basin, after hurricanes Carol, Edna, and Hazel struck the East Coast of the United States and caused a significant amount of damage in the previous year.

The JMA has been the official warning agency of the western Pacific Ocean since 1981, though other organizations have also tracked typhoons.

[8] The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) names tropical cyclones using a separate list, which is adjusted periodically.

[12] The secretariat subsequently reported to the following years session that the names Morakot and Aere had replaced Hanuman and Kodo.
