Hey all.
There does seem to be a distinct lack of activity for far in 2010. Does this mean we are in for a quiet year or likely will come thick and fast in June through to September?

Re: WPAC Typhoon Season
Typically, post Niño seasons in WPAC are characterized by less than normal activity with a slow start followed by an uptick in activity in the August timeframe with higher numbers for the last half of the season.

2006 was the last year in which at 1200 UTC on June 3, we had had only one named storm. 2006 ended up with 23 named storms, 15 of which were typhoons. 2006 also saw Severe Tropical Storm Bilis and Typhoon Saomai, both deadly storms.
2001 was the last year in which at 1200 UTC on June 3, we had had no typhoons. 2001 ended up with 26 named storms, 16 of which were typhoons. 2001 also saw the formation in December of Tropical Storm Vamei, which at the time was the closest-forming tropical cyclone to the equator until Cyclone Agni in 2004.
