The Global Tropics Hazards Outlook (GTH) has highlighted an increased likelihood of tropical cyclone (TC) activity in the Western Pacific over the next two weeks.
The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is currently propagating eastward, enhancing conditions for cyclogenesis.

Why It's Important?

Communities in the Western Pacific, particularly those in the Philippines and surrounding regions, should prepare for potential tropical cyclone impacts, including heavy rainfall, strong winds, and flooding. The Eastern Pacific may also experience increased rainfall and storm activity, posing risks to coastal areas and marine operations.
