Category:2012 Pacific Hurricane Season

The 2012 Pacific Hurricane Season was one of the worst seasons of all time, containing 3 typhoons, 5 super-typhoons, 15 tropical storms, 48 tropical depressions, 1 hypercane, and 5 hurricanes. The first storm was Typhoon Ken. It formed on January 1 from the Asian monsoon and moved downwards. As the storm got bigger and worser, it begun sucking moisture and cool air into it, causing a massive Pacific hurricane to form. When The storm reached Singapore on January 3, it was a Category 3 Typhoon, topping winds of 198 km/h (123 mph). The storm reached northern Australia and dissipated near the city of Darwin. But, the remnants of the storm, some supercells devastated cities like Darwin with 40 mph (65 km/h) winds. The storm dissipated on the 19th of January.

Hypercane Levy: One of the strongest storms of all, Hypercane Levy began life as a weak tropical storm on February 18th. While it was strengthening into a Category 1 Typhoon, it passed over an erupting underwater supervolcano. The eruption heated the ocean temperature and caused more and more water to evaporate, forming the second biggest superstorm of all. It reached LA within 2 days, creating some tornadoes and forming dust clouds so big, nobody could see through them. The Los Angeles Skyline got slightly damaged by the fast moving water and tornadoes. The storm moved out of South California and into Oregon by the February 26 and it dissipated on March 4. This storm made more than 4,000,000 trillion dollars in damage and killed well over 10 million people. People say that the tornadoes that formed in the 2012 South California tornado outbreak, were remnants of the storm.

Typhoon William: William formed out of nowhere as a tropical wave off the coast of South-western Canada on March 25. It was moving downwards and when it reached the state of Oregon on March 30, it was a Category 1 Typhoon. It caused damage in the city of Portland with winds of 120 km/h. It dissipated on April 3rd. The total cost of the repairs would be $4.5 million.

Typhoon Mitchell: Mitchell formed from the North American monsoon colliding with the Asian as a tropical storm on May 4. It moved down and devastated the city of Hilo with winds of 105 km/h as a Category 1 Typhoon on May 5. It moved out of Hawaii and dissipated after smashing into Super Typhoon Kyle on May 8.

Super Typhoon Kyle: Kyle formed off the coast of Australia as a tropical depression on May 1st. While it was slowly growing, it passed over a small underwater volcano. It worked the same way as Hypercane Levy. When the volcano erupted and the water got heated up and evaporated, a Super Typhoon was formed on May 3. The super typhoon had windspeeds of 340 km/h. The storm moved east. On May 8, Typhoon Mitchell smashed into the super typhoon. When the storm smashed into Kyle, Kyle began dissipating. The storm dissipated on June 2. It never made landfall.

Super Typhoon Danny: Danny was the strongest super typhoon on record, providing windspeeds of 400 km/h (near Category 1 Hypercane). On June 14th, three storm patterns began moving seaward off the coast of southeastern Russia, The storm patterns collided with eachother and formed the massive super typhoon which the International Weather Service was talking about on June 15. The storm moved south and caused irresistable damage to the coastlines of China, Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia. It dissipated near the Aussie town of Alice Springs, for the high temperatures caused it to evaporate. It dissipated on the 2nd of July. The storm itself killed 30, 000 people but its remnants killed 4, 000, 000. The storm beat 1979's Super Typhoon Tip.

Super Typhoon Richard: Richard was the second strongest super typhoon, and 5th strongest storm ever recorded, after Hypercane Humberto, Hypercane Levy, Hypercane Eric, Hypercane Gordon and Super Typhoon Danny. It formed on the 4th of July and dissipated on August 1. It was known as the Independence Day Storm because it formed on the 4th of July. The total Damage cost was AUD 4, 000, 000, CNY 24, 943, 000, and RUB 403, 000, 000. The president of China Jackie Chan called it a national emergency. The storm blew coastal communities and killed nearly 11, 000, 000 people.

Super Typhoon Neville: Neville formed as a tropical depression on August 1, probably from the remnants of Super Typhoon Richard. It quickly grew from a tropical depression to a tropical storm and into a Category 1 Typhoon by August 3. It travelled from northern Japan to outhwestern Mexico in a matter of a few days. The storm got super typhoon status and wrecked havoc in the city of Tijuana, Baja California with windspeeds of 320 km/h on August 13. It moved northwards and dissipated on August 24 somewhere in Arizona.

Super Typhoon Omega: It formed from warm and cold air colliding with a large storm system in the Mid-Pacific on August 30. It moved southwards with windspeeds of 100 km/h, later 300 km/h when granted super-typhoon status. Omega never made landfall and finally dissipated as a Category 5 super typhoon on September 4.

Hurricane Tom: Hurricane Tom formed from a disturbance in the North American Monsoon on September 5. It was moving at a very slow pace, and a small storm system was moving its way. On September 9 it collided with the newly born storm and formed a Category 1 Hurricane.
