Tropical cyclones in Russia

Russia is a nation in Eastern Europe and North Asia which is susceptible to the possibility for tropical cyclones to significantly impact its coastal regions.

[1][2] Of the tropical cyclones which track into Russia from the east, many of them traveled through Northeast China, the Yellow Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk, entering the Kamchatka Peninsula as a result.

A 2022 study stated that this may be in part due to an interaction with a mid-latitude trough.

[3] Many typhoons track into Russia as weakening cyclones, however, if a tropical cyclone is intense, some may track into the nation as typhoons despite the wind speed reduction caused by high latitudes.

[4] Studies have stated that due to global climate change, in the near future, there will be a probable northwards shift of tropical cyclone trajectories into the Russian Far East.
