Tropical Cyclone
A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system with a low-pressure area, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain and squalls. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is called a hurricane (), typhoon (), tropical storm, cyclonic storm, tropical depression, or simply cyclone. A hurricane is a strong tropical cyclone that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean or northeastern Pacific Ocean. A typhoon is the same thing which occurs in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. In the Indian Ocean and South Pacific, comparable storms are referred to as "tropical cyclones". In modern times, on average around 80 to 90 named tropical cyclones form each year around the world, over half of which develop hurricane-force winds of or more. Tropical cyclones tropical cyclogenesis, typically form over large bodies of relatively warm water. They derive their energy through the evaporation of water ...

It was a rather below-average season, producing a total of 23 tropical storms, 13 typhoons and 4 intense typhoons. The season ran throughout 2000, though typically most tropical cyclones develop between May and October. The season's first named storm, Damrey, developed on May 7, while the season's last named storm, Soulik, dissipated on January 4 of the next year.

Two days later, the storm reached its peak intensity with winds of 10-minute winds with a minimum pressure of 910 hPa (mbar). The typhoon gradually weakened as it recurved towards the northeast and was downgraded to a severe tropical storm on September 24 and became extratropical the next day. The storm was last noted near the Aleutian Islands on September 27. The typhoon caused severe damage on the island of Chichijima but no injuries were reported as a re ...

Tropical Storm Yagi, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Karding, was a moderate but damaging tropical cyclone that was part of the 2018 Pacific typhoon season.

Though it was disorganized mainly due to moderate vertical wind shear, excellent outflow allowed the storm to intensify, and by August 8, it strengthened into a tropical storm, receiving the name , which refers to the constellation of Capricornus in Japanese. Yagi moved erratically before steering northwestward on August 9, as thunderstorms broadened close to the center. As it continued to battle vertical wind shear, the storm deviated and turned west on August 11, before resuming its northwestward path. That day, Yagi attained ...
