formation, in which tropical cyclones form in the western Pacific Ocean. The season ran throughout 2007, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and November. The season's first named storm, Kong-rey, developed on March 30, while the season's last named storm, Mitag, dissipated on November 27. The season's first typhoon, Yutu, reached typhoon status on May 18, and became the first super typhoon of the year on the next day.

City University of Hong Kong The City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) is a public research university in Kowloon Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was founded in 1984 as the City Polytechnic of Hong Kong and formally established as the City University of Hong Kong in 1994 ...
have issued forecasts of activity for each upcoming typhoon season. Forecasts were released in April and June predicting how many tropical cyclones, tropical storms, and typhoons there will be during the season. During the season, the LAR is predicting a below average season with fewer than usual tropical cyclones. In its April forecast, the LAR predicted that 28 tropical cyclones, 25 tropical storms, and 14 typhoons before in its June forecast predicting 27 tropical cyclones, 24 tropical storms and 14 typhoons.


Tropical Storm Risk Consortium

Since the 2000 typhoon season, the Tropical Storm Risk Consortium (TSR) of the University College of London have issued forecasts of activity for each upcoming typhoon season. During 2007, forecasts were released in March, May, June, July and August predicting how many tropical cyclones, tropical storms, typhoons and intense typhoons there will be during a season. In its March forecast, TSR predicted that the season would be about 15% below average with 24 tropical storms, 15 typhoons and 7 intense typhoons. In its May forecast, TSR predicted that the season would now be near normal with 27 tropical storms, 17 typhoons and 8 intense typhoons forming during the season. Within their June July and August forecasts, TSR forecasted the season would be near normal with 27 tropical storms and 17 typhoons forming.

The JTWC issued its first warning on Tropical Depression 04W later that day, and forecast a gradual intensification, as weak to moderate wind shear and weak poleward outflow balanced the effect of high ocean heat content. The JMA began issuing full tropical cyclone advisories on the tropical depression at the same time. As the depression gained more organisation, it was upgraded to a tropical storm that night by the JTWC. The JMA finally upgraded it to a tropical storm later that evening as the large system consolidated, naming it ''Man-yi''. The name "Man-yi" was contributed by Hong Kong, and is the Chinese name of a

The JMA declared Faxai a severe tropical storm as October 27 began; the same day, the JTWC stopped issuing advisories once more due to Faxai having completed its extratropical transition. The JMA also stopped issuing advisories on the same day. Faxai killed one person and injured three others in Japan. One home, two hectares of farmland, and of roads were damaged by the storm.

Tropical Storm Tapah

Early on November 8, the JTWC reported that an area of convection had persisted about , to the east of Guam. Quickscat data had revealed that there was weak troughing at the surface but no closed low level circulation center existed. Lying under the edge of an upper-level ridge the disturbance was in an area of moderate amount vertical windshear. Over the next couple of days an anticyclone helped to develop the disturbance so that the JMA declared it a Tropical Depression on November 11. Later that morning a TCFA, was issued by the JTWC later that morning as deep convection was now organizing into a partially exposed low level circulation center. Later that day the JTWC designated the depression, as 22W whilst it was located , to the southwest of Iwo To. The Depression at this stage was beginning to turn towards the north with deep convection consolidating since the TCFA was released, and was strongest along the northern edge of the system which was enhanced by poleward outflow into the midlatitude

Tropical Depression 25W

On November 24 an area of disturbed area formed about south east of Guam. During the following day the JTWC issued a TCFA on the developing system whilst the JMA designated it as a minor tropical depression. On November 26 the JTWC designated the depression as Tropical depression 25W Over the next couple of days it tracked towards the north west maintaining its peak wind speeds of . The depression then started its extra tropical transition on November 27 as it interacted with the Baroclinic zone, the JTWC then issued its final warning on 25W. This was because the depression would succumb to the increasing vertical sheer and decreasing sea surface temperatures as it completed its extra tropical transition.


Tropical Depression 26W

on November 26. The next day the JTWC issued a TCFA on the developing system. On November 28, the JMA declared it as a minor tropical depression, whilst later that day the JTWC followed suit and designated it as a tropical depression, with the JTWC assigning the number 26W to the depression. However the Tropical depression quickly became extratropical later that day with the JTWC issuing their final advisory on the storm later that day. However the JMA continued to monitor the Depression until it dissipated the next day.

International names

During the season 24 tropical storms developed in the Western Pacific and each one was named by the JMA, when the system was judged to have 10-minute sustained windspeeds of . The JMA selected the names from a list of 140 names, that had been developed by the 14 members nations and territories of the ESCAP/WMO Typhoon Committee. During the season, the name ''Peipah'' was used for the first time, after it replaced the name Vamei used in the 2001 season. No international names were retired following the 2007 season.
