No active watches or warnings.

## How Cempaka developed

1. November 3 — First reading records a tropical depression.

   The first reading in the record places THIRTYONE over open water at 16.9°N, 165.4°E, with winds of 28 km/h and gusts of 32 km/h. The reading records no movement. This marks the start of the available observation history, not necessarily the storm’s formation.
2. November 4 — Winds rise to 37 km/h.

   At 06:00 UTC, the recorded wind speed rises from 28 km/h to 37 km/h, with gusts increasing to 43 km/h. Later readings that day keep the same wind and gust speeds. The storm’s recorded movement is generally westward, at speeds between 24 km/h and 34 km/h.
3. November 6 — Winds reach 46 km/h as the heading turns northwest.

   At 00:00 UTC, the wind speed rises to 46 km/h and gusts reach 53 km/h. The recorded heading changes from 287° in the previous reading to 306°, then 308° at 06:00 UTC. The latest reading keeps the wind and gust speeds unchanged and records movement at 33 km/h.
4. November 7 — Strengthens to a tropical storm.

   At 00:00 UTC on November 7, THIRTYONE's classification changes from tropical depression to tropical storm. Sustained winds rise from 56 km/h at the previous reading to 65 km/h, while gusts increase from 64 km/h to 75 km/h. Central pressure falls from 1,005 mb to 1,004 mb. The 65 km/h sustained wind is the strongest value in the record.
5. November 8 — Strengthens into a typhoon.

   At 00:00 UTC on November 8, Cempaka's classification changes from tropical storm to typhoon. Sustained winds rise from 111 km/h six hours earlier to 120 km/h, with gusts increasing from 128 km/h to 138 km/h. Pressure remains 992 mb, and the center is in the Philippine Sea at 21.4°N, 138.7°E.

## How Cempaka is behaving

The readings show a gradual increase in sustained wind: 28 km/h at the first observation, 37 km/h by November 4, then 46 km/h on November 6. The wind held at 37 km/h across several readings before that increase, and it has remained at 46 km/h in the latest 2 readings. Gusts followed the same pattern, reaching 53 km/h. The latest central pressure is 1,007 millibars, but only that one pressure value is provided, so the record does not establish a pressure trend. Recorded movement increased from no movement in the first reading to speeds mostly between 23 km/h and 37 km/h. Recent headings shifted from westward to northwestward.

## How to track Cempaka

Turn on the tropical storm tracks layer in RainViewer to follow THIRTYONE’s recorded positions. Each track point shows the storm’s category at that moment: tropical depression in cyan, tropical storm in blue, category 1 in yellow, category 2 in amber, category 3 in orange, category 4 in red, and category 5 in dark red. THIRTYONE’s readings identify it as a tropical depression, so look for cyan points along its track.

Compare the latest position and movement with earlier points to see how THIRTYONE’s path has changed. The readings show a generally westward track followed by a shift toward the northwest, while its wind speed rose from 28 km/h to 46 km/h. These observations describe the recorded track and intensity, not what will happen next. Download RainViewer from Google Play or the App Store to follow the storm’s track.

## Storm FAQ

### Why are tropical cyclones given names?

Names help people distinguish one tropical cyclone from another in forecasts and public communication. This storm’s record uses the designation THIRTYONE.

### What does a storm pressure reading in millibars mean?

Millibars measure air pressure; the storm’s latest reading is 1,007 millibars. One reading alone does not show whether pressure is rising or falling.

### What is the difference between wind speed and gusts?

Wind speed is the sustained wind value in a reading, while a gust is a brief higher burst of wind. THIRTYONE’s latest reading gives 46 km/h winds and 53 km/h gusts.
