This is Typhion, primary analyst for the 1968 season. Obviously with a record year there will be some who may question the validity of my analysis, especially with the final ACE bar. Given the many recon gaps and lack of data for some storms (mainly weaker Tropical storms), the ACE could have been lower or even higher than shown here. I had a hard time believing the final number when I was finished myself. But this season shows that there is a lot left to be uncovered in older Typhoon seasons, so look forward to more animated seasons reanalyzed by me and the analysis team in the future!

[@Charlzity1]

Typhion did a great job analysing this season

[@SuperTyphoonTracker2003]

Good animation bro keep it up

[@aron1332]

1969 may be another season underestimated by at least 100 ACE units. 1990, 1991, 1971 are all very underestimated

[@Charlzity1]

thank you@@SuperTyphoonTracker2003

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

1959 was the most active season in my opinion. It might have even had more than 600 ACE. Edit : never mind my opinion changed it was almost certainly 1964 wpac. Most active in terms of ACE, overall storms, and named storms. 111 total systems and seven category 5s.

[@Supernova-lc2yf]

Not sure WHAT I was expecting it definitely wasnt *6 category 5s with 587 ACE!!* 😱

[@notmrpopular0099]

Who knows? Even if this is unofficial today, maybe in the future, most of this could be realized during the WPAC reanalysis project!

With the thumbnail, i think it was made by Alex (TSK 2023]

[@JBoxGs]

The Thumbnail was… but…

[@DEEJAY440]

587 ACE is CRAZY... 1997 only had 567

[@notmrpopular0099]

Probably one day this may be realized once the WPAC reanalysis project gets up to speed... Though for now, it is unofficial analysis.

[@lysothea897]

I didn't expect that this 1968 Typhoon season to be this hyperactive and with an insanely 587 ACE! What? And 11 super Typhoons and 6 of them are Cat 5 is just wow. And for the record which Typhoon season produces the most Cat 5 and also I'm sorry to say this but I prefer the old landfall animation because the landfall in this video and the 2022-2023 Australia cyclone season is kinder made me fell a little bit of goosebumps unlike that landfall animation of 2017 Atlantic hurricane season where Irma made landfall in the laser antilles made me feel goosebumps.😬

[@samuelleblanc1]

Ikr!

[@SuperTyphoonTracker2003]

587 ACE💀 What the hell is happening. This season becomes hyperactive holy Jesus

[@Wolf-rk6jq]

Yea so hyper active I was chatting on the live chat. It was crazy.

[@notmrpopular0099]

What did we expect with WPAC? I mean, it can be bonkers at times. As for this season, I've heard it may have been underestimated. I am guessing it might be due to recon data being either missing or missed some of the storm's actual intensity... Some storms may not be listed here at all.

[@GamingWithTripnh18872]

This season was definitely bonkers in terms of everything

[@notmrpopular0099]

Yeah, I am not sure if this season's influenced by an El Nino like this year, though... But it is probable maybe some storms are missing, and even if they are included, probably some of the storms intensities are higher than indicated due to recon data either is missing or underestimated...

[@TSKALEX876]

I did not make this animation guys, I made the thumbnail

[@Itsatrap365]

Why didn’t you make the animation

[@notmrpopular0099]

So this technically means that TWO people made the video itself?! One for the thumbnail and one for the animation?!

@@Itsatrap365 Because Charlie took it first? I just offered to make the thumbnail

[@SilentStormic]

i was not expecting this season to surpass 1997 in ace

[@notmrpopular0099]

I mean, this is F13's analysis so this is unofficial... But keep in mind, there IS recon data back then like the ATL nowadays, so yet again, maybe most of this could be realized in the future.

[@macchersl6571]

What dies ace mean?

[@LucasgamerX_YT]

@@macchersl6571accumulated Cyclone energy, Its dependent on how strong the storm and its period of time with that intensity. Stronger the storm then more ace will be created. But if it last longer with that very strong intensity then they can create a ton of ace. It’s basically a way of showing on how intense the season was.

[@macchersl6571]

@@LucasgamerX_YT thanks bro

[@JBoxGs]

I’ve seen the animation already, It was crazy

[@notmrpopular0099]

It is crazy indeed! And what do you know, this season might be... well probably underestimated?

[@JBoxGs]

@@notmrpopular0099 I know all, lol. I’m best friends with the animator and he did not disappoint during this!

[@aron1332]

Possibly the most underestimated season of WPAC. May have been underestimated by at least 140 ACE units (ranges from 140 - 190 ACE units deviation)

[@notmrpopular0099]

It is probable that the recon data may have underestimated the actual intensities of the storms listed here. And maybe some storms could still be missing... Though I've wondered what the recon data for these storms do show, though... since there is regular recon flights back then unlike today for WPAC nowadays.

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

1964, as famous as it is, is likely the most underestimated season in terms of ACE.

[@aron1332]

@@EliRicke-xl9mw by how much is it underestimated?

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

By up to 300 ACE units

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

111 systems, 60+ storms, and 7 cat 5s cannot be ignored. The JTWC says that it had less than 400 ACE, which is an absolute joke.

[@samuelleblanc1]

And how do you do such amazing animations!!

[@DEEJAY440]

Dont know much about this season, It will be interesting

[@Latino2904]

It included Agnes and Elaine and they were both C5s.

[@Wod193]

it possibly beats 1997 in terms of ACE, I only learned about this recently

[@JBoxGs]

@@Latino2904 literally just said what was on the thumbnail

[@aron1332]

This is probably the most underestimated WPAC season ever

[@JBoxGs]

@@aron1332 yea

[@Hypercane]

I love this one.

[@typhoonedits2334]

I just wanna say this is the highest ace season i guess but idk. For those who dont know and didn't watch the video,the total of this season's ace is 587.This is the underestimating season ever

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

1964 was more underestimated. Even by F13.

[@TyphoonMike1990]

​@EliRicke-xl9mw what about 1959?

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

1959 is another one, even 1997 is underestimated in terms of ACE, since a lot of storms had their intensities underestimated. For instance, Winnie was possibly 190, Bing was probably 160, Oliwa may have been 185, Ivan was probably 190, Keith may have also been 190. 185 Joan is reasonable Paka is overestimated, and was probably 180. Amber was a cat 4.

[@TheSpaceEnthusiast-vl6wx]

​@@EliRicke-xl9mw Sorry for this, but please explain the intensity estimates you have listed. I am curious.

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

@@TheSpaceEnthusiast-vl6wx I am mainly basing them off pressure and size. There's no other information that can be used to estimate the storm's intensities.

There this more ace in the REAL LIFE season than in the 2030 Atlantic HYPO!

Ok who ever made the animation please I beg remove the landfall animation it looks bad

[@corgimations]

I agree, but sadly I can't do anything about it since it's really up to Nathan himself

[@epicbobster3328]

Does that mean other creators would take the previous one?

[@Hypercane]

@@corgimationsyou can do something about it. say it during Sundays.

[@thecore_gamer2ndchannel]

This 1968 season have too many unnamed and too many super typhoon and too many ACE

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

1964, despite all its named storms, had a LOT of unnamed storms as well. In total it had 111 systems. 1964 definitely had more ACE than 1968, and probably more than any other season in history.

[@EliRicke-xl9mw]

111 systems if you count the unnamed storms, depressions, and invests.
