The Storm Tracks layer on the RainViewer map shows current position, past path, forecast path, and the cone of probable tracks. RainViewer does not replace official warnings. - See the full storm path Tap any point on the path to see wind speed, category and direction at that point. - Read the category in one place Open any storm to see its category and intensity. - Get a notification when a storm approaches RainViewer sends a Tropical Storm Alert when a storm approaches your area. ## When is typhoon season in the Marshall Islands? Typhoon activity in the Marshall Islands is strongest from July to October, when most typhoons in the north-west Pacific form and make landfall. The Japan Meteorological Agency names each typhoon in the basin. A typhoon starts as a cluster of thunderstorms over warm ocean water. Warm, moist air rises from the sea surface. The air pressure near the surface drops, and more air flows in. The rotation of the Earth makes this air spin, anticlockwise in the Northern Hemisphere. Weak winds high in the atmosphere let the system organise. A system with a closed circulation is called a tropical depression. It becomes a tropical storm when its winds strengthen, and the Japan Meteorological Agency gives it a name. It becomes a typhoon when its winds reach typhoon strength. Sea temperatures around the Marshall Islands are highest in late summer. This is the time of the most storm activity. Typhoons often form over the warm water of the western Pacific Ocean. Typhoons that form near the islands usually move west towards Micronesia and Guam. ## Past typhoons in the Marshall Islands Storms that affect the Marshall Islands can come from the northwest Pacific Ocean.

The typhoon tracker map on this RainViewer page shows current storm tracks near the Marshall Islands, and the list under the map names each active storm near the Marshall Islands. When no storm is active, the list says so and links to storms in other regions. Past storms near the Marshall Islands are listed further down the page. ### When is typhoon season in the Marshall Islands, and which months are busiest? Typhoon activity in the Marshall Islands is strongest from July to October, when most typhoons in the north-west Pacific form and make landfall, and the Japan Meteorological Agency names each typhoon. The Japan Meteorological Agency is the regional warning centre for the basin. Typhoons that form near the islands usually move west towards Micronesia and Guam. ### Which official source issues typhoon warnings for the Marshall Islands? The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) publishes the official forecasts and advisories for every active storm in the north-west Pacific basin, including storms near the Marshall Islands, and national weather services issue the local warnings. RainViewer shows storm tracks on a map and does not replace official warnings. The JMA is the source for official basin forecasts. ### What does the forecast cone show on the Marshall Islands map? The forecast cone on the RainViewer map shows the probable track of the centre of a storm during the forecast period. The cone does not show how far wind, rain, or storm surge reach from the centre, so areas outside the cone can still have storm effects. The cone is part of the Storm Tracks layer, together with the current position, the past path, and the forecast path. ### Where can I see rain radar for the Marshall Islands? RainViewer shows rain radar for the Marshall Islands, and the [Marshall Islands weather radar page](https://www.rainviewer.com/radars/marshall-islands.html) lists radar coverage and links to city radar pages. RainViewer updates radar every 5 minutes. Radar shows rain inside a storm. The Storm Tracks layer shows where the storm is moving.
