1987 Pacific Typhoon Season Animation
An underrated season is putting it mildly with this season. 1987 West Pacific was one of the most active seasons on record for the basin. The season broke a few records, notably being the only season at the time to include 3 storms with winds of at least 185mph. It also had 10 super typhoons, nearly breaking the record of 11, which was made in 1965 and 1997. The Philippines received 2 Category 5 landfalls this year, from Betty and Nina, with Nina being the strongest. Freda, Gerald, and Holly were a trio of super typhoons at the same time in early September, with Freda and Holly being a Category 5 pair for 12 hours. Wynne and Dinah also briefly attained Category 5 intensity on their journey throughout the basin.
