The 1974 Pacific typhoon season has no official bounds; it ran year-round in 1974, but most tropical cyclones tend to form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean between June and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northwestern Pacific Ocean.

The scope of this article is limited to the Pacific Ocean, north of the equator and west of the international date line. Storms that form east of the date line and north of the equator are called hurricanes; see 1974 Pacific hurricane season. Tropical Storms formed in the entire west pacific basin were assigned a name by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Tropical depressions in this basin have the "W" suffix added to their number. Tropical depressions that enter or form in the Philippine area of responsibility are assigned a name by the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration or PAGASA. This can often result in the same storm having two names.

35 tropical depressions formed this year in the Western Pacific, of which 32 became tropical storms. Fifteen storms reached typhoon intensity, and none reached super typhoon strength. [https://metocph.nmci.navy.mil/jtwc/atcr/1974atcr/pdf/1974.html 1974 ATCR TABLE OF CONTENTS ] ]

Typhoon Mary

Infobox Hurricane Small
Basin=WPac



Formed=August 11
Dissipated=August 26
1-min winds=70
Pressure=964
The monsoon trough spawned a tropical depression on August 10. It tracked to the northeast, then turned to the northwest where it became a tropical storm on the 11th. Mary's appearance resembled an extratropical cyclone due to vertical shear, and as the ridge built over Japan, Mary turned more to the west. Conditions were favorable enough for Mary to reach typhoon strength on the 18th, but it weakened to a tropical storm before hitting northeastern China on the 19th. A high pressure system over China forced now Tropical Depression Mary to the southeast, where it restrengthened into a tropical storm on the 24th. The storm turned to the northeast, briefly becoming a typhoon again on the 25th before weakening. Mary hit Japan on the 26th, and dissipated shortly thereafter. 3 lives were lost in Mary's path, with moderate damage occurring.

1974 storm names

Western North Pacific tropical cyclones were named by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. The first storm of 1974 was named Wanda and the final one was named Kit. The name Bess was removed from the list after this year.

One Central Pacific system developed, Hurricane Olive. The policy at the time was to use Western Pacific names the Central Pacific.
