2024 Pacific typhoon season

The 2024 Pacific typhoon season was a below-average season in terms of accumulated cyclone energy (ACE) but was slightly above-average in terms of named storms, typhoons, and super typhoons, ending a four-year streak of below-average seasons that began in 2020. Furthermore, it was the fifth-latest Pacific typhoon season on record, the deadliest season since 2013, and the fourth costliest on record, primarily due to Typhoon Yagi. Moreover, this season saw an unusually active November, with the month experiencing four simultaneously active typhoons and featuring the most retired names in a single season—nine. Of all the 26 named tropical storms, 13 became typhoons and 6 of them reached super typhoon status. The season ran throughout the year, though most tropical cyclones typically develop between May and November. The season's first named storm, Ewiniar, developed on May 25 and eventually intensified into the first typhoon of the season, while the last named storm, Pabuk, dissipated on December 25.

The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean to the north of the equator between 100°E and 180th meridian. Within the northwestern Pacific Ocean, there are two separate agencies that assign names to tropical cyclones which can often result in a cyclone having two names. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) will name a tropical cyclone if it has 10-minute sustained wind speeds of at least 65 km/h (40 mph) anywhere in the basin. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) assigns names to tropical cyclones which move into or form as a tropical depression in the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR), located between 135°E and 115°E and between 5°N and 25°N, regardless of whether or not a tropical cyclone has already been given a name by the JMA. Tropical depressions that are monitored by the United States' Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) are given a number with a "W" suffix; W meaning west, a reference to the western Pacific region.
