The models (EURO, GFS, NAVGEM, CMC) continue to indicate a very active month of August for the WPAC and has storms developing in the SCS to near the dateline. Super crazy.

Kelvin Wave about to move through the basin and the dry phrase of the MJO locked in place.

With 16W developing, that makes it 7 TC's developing during the month of July compared to the long-term average of 3-4 cyclones.

The Western Pacific is expected to stay active during Week-1, before the suppressed convective signal moves in, lessening the likelihood for tropical cyclone (TC) development for the Week-2 period. With input from JTWC, two areas of possible formation are highlighted for Week-1; an area near Guam where there is high confidence for a TC formation toward the middle of Week-1 and an area of moderate confidence further east toward the central Pacific toward the end of Week-1. If formed, these systems will likely be short-lived, due to their expected tracks northward toward the mid-latitudes.

Hector is now increasingly likely to enter the Western Pacific as a powerful typhoon. We could get lots of ACE. It could be a repeat of Ioke.

I have a question. Does storms entering the WPAC from the EPAC/CPAC get counted to the WPAC?

If you mean ACE, yes, as soon as they cross the dateline, until they either leave the basin or dissipate

This post was probably an opinion of mine, and in no way is official. Please refer to http://www.hurricanes.gov for official tropical analysis and advisories.
