Tropical Storm Nongfa, known in the Philippines as Tropical Depression Jacinto, was a weak tropical cyclone that struck Vietnam and affected the Philippines as a precursor low in late August 2025. The fourteenth named storm of the 2025 Pacific typhoon season, Nongfa's origins can be traced from a disturbance east of Mindanao, which eventually crossed the Philippine archipelago before gradually becoming a tropical depression west of Luzon on August 27, 2025. Nongfa later entered in the South China Sea, where it strengthened into a tropical storm before it made landfall over Quảng Trị and Hà Tĩnh on August 30.
The name Nongfa was contributed by Laos, and it means "blue lake", a lake in the Lao PDR. It replaced the name Faxai in 2019.
