Typhoon Kristine 2024

Severe Tropical Storm Trami, known in the Philippines as Severe Tropical Storm Kristine, was a very large, devastating, and deadly tropical cyclone that wreaked havoc across the Philippines and later impacted Vietnam,Thailand, and China in October 2024. It was also the first tropical cyclone in a series to impact the northern Philippines in late 2024.

The depression was named Kristine, the 11th tropical cyclone of 2024. On the same day, Kristine brought moderate to heavy rainfall to parts of the eastern Philippines, increasing the risk of flooding and landslides.

Typhoon Kristine devastated 13 regions and 29 provinces, affecting at least 4.2 million individuals – approximately 1.3 million children – and displacing more than 300,000.

Kristine struck the Philippines in late October and left a trail of death and destruction. Shortly after, another damaging storm followed, with yet another now threatening the nation.
