Tropical Tidbits as a source
editIs Tropical Tidbits a reliable source? The guy who runs it (Dr. Levi Cowan) does work at the JTWC if I recall correctly, and I've seen Typhoon Yagi's page updated once with Tropical Tidbits as the source, but I'm still wondering if it's really credible or not.

- I think it is fine, but depends on personal views maybe. High Admiral JMT (talk) 03:03, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
Etymology
editCan someone provide the etymology like on previous storms? I am guessing that it's Thai though. Borgenland (talk) 15:59, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Krathon, Mangkhut, and Durian are all fruit names. High Admiral JMT (talk) 00:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
a historical event in the East Sea
editIn less than a month, there have been two storms with the highest level of JMA entering the East Sea. Is this an unprecedented historical event in the East Sea? Nguyễn Quốc Anh (1248) (talk) 06:50, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- Possibly, yes. Plus, September 2024 hosts an above-average typhoon number. High Admiral JMT (talk) 00:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- TY #Krathon (PH : #JulianPH) is now making landfall in the city of Kaoshiung in the southwestern Taiwan this Thursday afternoon local time – the first typhoon to do in 28 years. It is the only third typhoon to make landfall in the city since 1945, according to the archives from NOAA, after Thelma (1977) and Gloria (1996).

Add A Fact: "Typhoon Krathon causes extreme rains in Taiwan"
editI found a fact that might belong in this article. See the quote below
Mountainous areas in the island’s south have seen up to 169 centimeters (5.5 feet) of rain over the past five days.
The fact comes from the following source:
