#1 Postby Hayabusa » Mon Dec 22, 2025 3:08 am

The possibility of El Nino in 2026 makes it a prospect of an active season, what do you guys think?

WPAC has not had a season with above average activity since 2019. So, this year might be the one that breaks this streak though one must remember that 2023 also had a strong El Niño but only managed to pump out 17 storms including 10 typhoons even if most of those were major.

Maybe if the PDO warms, we haven't seen a positive PDO since the start of the 2020s

I like the names Narra and Bang-Lang, are those new names?
I'm guessing those two will be significant system
