Back in 1977

1997 had Supertyphoon Winnie, Typhoon Amber, and Tropical Storms Yule, Zita, and Cass all form and exist entirely within August within the WPAC....along with Scott, Tina, Victor, and Bing existing within August but extending into July or September.
Has there ever been an August in the WPAC without a single tropical cyclone formation? Nakri and Halong originated in July and Genevieve originated in the East and that's all the WPAC has had all month long thus far.
Looked through the JTWC achieve, None so far...
Like 1977, I found a few years with only one formation in August late 40's early 50's...
next in line in PAGASA's naming list --- "KANOR" - that name has been a legend here in the Philippines...
