The JTWC issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA) for a developing broad circulation that stretched out from the northwest Borneo coast early on January 4.

Soon after reaching its peak strength of 65 km/h (40 mph) Hilda drifted further north into an area of increased wind shear, which caused the storm to dissipate the next day.

[3] Malaysia reported to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Typhoon Committee that Tropical Storm Hilda brought heavy rain to Sabah.

Peak sustained winds of 90 km/h (56 mph) were recorded on Waglan Island as Typhoon Leo passed to the south of Hong Kong and the storm dropped over 100 mm (3.9 in) of rain on the territory.

The convection gradually consolidated as the disturbance moved north and the ninth tropical depression of the season formed on July 25 south of Okinawa.

There it interacted with a mid-latitude trough, that redirected back towards South Korea and it made a second landfall 35 km (22 mi) southwest of Seoul on July 28.

[24] There were reports of damage from flooding and winds gusts from Tropical Storm Neil in Japan, with a ferry running aground near Kannoura.

[24] As the depression passed near Hong Kong, it dropped 31 mm (1.2 in) of rain on the territory and sustained winds of 72 km/h (45 mph) were recorded on Waglan Island.

The storm was beginning to weaken as it passed to the west of Cheju Island on August 3 and it made a second brief landfall on the T'aean Peninsula before moving north in the Yellow Sea.

[29] Torrential rain of up to 600 mm (24 in) fell on the Korean Peninsula, with the highest totals falling near the border between North and South Korea.

Sam gradually intensified further as it approached the Chinese coast and it made landfall about 19 km (12 mi) to the northeast of Hong Kong at its peak with 140 km/h (87 mph) winds on August 22.

[39] In addition to the direct casualties from the storm, China Airlines Flight 642, using an MD-11 aircraft, crashed while attempting to land at Hong Kong International Airport, killing three on board and injuring 219.

The compact system intensified as it moved west under the influence of the subtropical ridge to the north, with the JTWC upgrading it to Tropical Storm Tanya early the next day.

Post-season analysis increased the initial intensity of the system, making it a tropical storm before the JTWC began to issue full advisories on Tanya.

[43] On August 21, a small tropical cyclone developed at the southern end of a westward moving shearline about 1,200 km (750 mi) to the east of Tokyo.

The system gradually strengthened as it moved northwest towards the Chinese coastline, reaching its peak as a 130 km/h (81 mph) typhoon as it turned towards Hong Kong on September 16.

[50] As the developing depression was crossing the Philippines, it brought heavy showers of up to 400 mm (16 in), which caused some flooding in the Cagayan Valley[51] Eighteen people were killed in landslides in northern Luzon.

A total of 300 mm (12 in) of rain fell on the territory as York passed directly over it and the resulting floods had a severe effect on agriculture throughout Hong Kong.

[50] Tropical Depression 23W formed about 165 km (103 mi) to the east of Okinawa on September 15, from a disturbance moving to the northwest under the influence of a subtropical high located on the eastern side of a monsoon trough.

As Ann approached the Chinese coast to the north of Shanghai on September 18, it reached its peak with 85 km/h (53 mph) winds and began to recurve to the northwest.

[56] Rains of up to 200 mm (7.9 in) from Ann and Typhoon Bart saturated South Korea and southwestern Japan, causing flooding and damage to rice paddies.

After crossing Kyūshū and western Honshū, the storm accelerated to the northeast in the Sea of Japan, becoming extratropical shortly before it reached northern Hokkaidō.

As it neared the Chinese coast a strong ridge to the north turned Cam abruptly to the west, towards Hong Kong and it began to weaken.

The highest gust recorded on land was 121 km/h (75 mph) on Tai Mo Shan, and 41 mm (1.6 in) of rain fell on Hong Kong.

[66] A broad area of convection to the northeast of Mindanao over the Philippine Sea began to develop on October 15 as it moved to the west, becoming Tropical Depression 27W.

Eve made landfall 110 km (68 mi) southeast of Da Nang as a minimal tropical storm on October 19 and quickly dissipated overland.

[72] Eve was the first in a series of storms to bring torrential rain to the region, and the resulting floods killed over 590 people, and they also caused nearly $235 million of damage directly.

The storm turned to the north shortly before it made landfall on December 16 and dissipated soon after over Vietnam under the influence of increased wind shear and interaction with land.

10 (Vietnamese: Bão số 10), caused heavy rainfall in South Central Coast provinces from Bình Định to Phú Yên.

Thunderstorm activity started to increase and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA) on the system.
