Part of the 2001 Pacific typhoon season

Typhoon Lingling, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Nanang, was a deadly typhoon that struck the Philippines and Vietnam in 2001 and caused 379 deaths. The name "Lingling" was given by Hong Kong.[1] The 39th tropical depression, 22nd named storm, and 13th typhoon of the 2001 Pacific typhoon season, Lingling developed into a tropical depression on November 6 and given the local name Nanang by the PAGASA. The next day, it was upgraded into a tropical storm and given the name Lingling by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA). Lingling's intensity briefly stagnated as it moved over Visayas before resuming intensification and intensifying into a severe tropical storm on November 8. One day later, both the JMA and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) upgraded Lingling to a typhoon as it exited the Philippine archipelago and moved into the South China Sea. After intensifying into a typhoon, Lingling began to quickly intensify, peaking with 10-min sustained winds of 155 km/h (96 mph) and 1-min sustained winds of 215 km/h (135 mph), with a minimum central pressure of 940 mbar (28 inHg). Lingling began to weaken as it approached the Vietnamese coast, before making landfall on November 11 at 18:00 UTC. Lingling rapidly weakened afterward, dissipating on November 12.

At 19:00 UTC on November 3, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) began monitoring an area of convection approximately 120 nautical miles (220 km) east-southeast of Yap, assessing its development potential as poor due to infrared satellite imagery indicating disorganized convection.[2][3] Surface analysis the next morning showed that the disturbance was located within a monsoon trough without a closed circulation, though the convection was located within a favorable for intensification.[3] The next day on November 5 at 6:00 UTC, the JTWC upgraded its development potential to fair as satellite imagery showed multiple low-level circulations within a broader circulation.[2][3] The disturbance continued organizing, and on the same day at 20:30 UTC, the JTWC issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert (TCFA) on the system.[2] On November 6 at 0:00 UTC, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA), the PAGASA, and the JTWC began issuing warnings on a tropical depression that had formed about 750 km (470 mi) southeast of Manila, with the JTWC giving it the designation 27W and the PAGASA giving it the local name Nanang.[2][3][4][5]

The JTWC and the PAGASA estimated the depression's strength at 50 km/h (31 mph), though by 6:00 UTC the PAGASA had upgraded it to a tropical storm as the system's organization began to improve.[3] By 12:00 UTC, the JTWC had increased the system's intensity to 55 km/h (34 mph) as it began approaching Leyte Gulf, and at 18:00 UTC on November 6, the JMA upgraded the depression to a tropical storm, giving it the name Lingling, with the JTWC doing so later at 0:00 UTC on November 7 as its center was located over Cebu.[3][4][6] Lingling continued to the west-northwest, primarily steered by a mid-level high situated over northern Vietnam and southern China.[7] Lingling's intensity briefly stagnated as its center moved over Negros Island and Panay before resuming intensification, with the JTWC estimating winds of 85 km/h (53 mph) on November 8 at 0:00 UTC.[3][6] By 12:00 UTC the same day, the JTWC had upgraded the storm's strength to 105 km/h (65 mph), with the JMA upgrading Lingling to a severe tropical storm 6 hours later, estimating a minimum central pressure of 980 mbar (hPa; 28.94 inHg) as it entered the South China Sea.[4][6] Lingling continued intensifying, and by November 9, the JTWC and the JMA upgraded Lingling to a typhoon, with the JMA doing so later in the day.[4][6]

After Lingling intensified into a typhoon, it began to quickly intensify as it tracked along the southern edge of a strong monsoonal northeasterly surge.[2] Convective coverage began to increase and become more organized and by November 9 at 18:00 UTC, the JTWC assessed Lingling's maximum sustained winds at 165 km/h (103 mph) as it began to turn westward, before further intensifying into a Category-3 equivalent cyclone on November 10 at 0:00 UTC.[5][6] Later that day at 12:00 UTC, the JTWC unofficially estimated Lingling to have peaked, with 1-min sustained winds of 215 km/h (134 mph) and a minimum central pressure of 927 mbar (27.4 inHg).[6] The JMA estimated Lingling to have peaked 12 hours later on November 11 at 0:00 UTC, with 10-min sustained winds of 155 km/h (96 mph) and a minimum central pressure of 940 mbar (28 inHg).[4] Gales from the storm extended 170 nm in all quadrants, with it extending up to 250 nm in the northwestern quadrant; the eye's diameter at this time was 25 nm.[3] Lingling then began to weaken thereafter, with the JMA downgrading it to a severe tropical storm and the JTWC downgrading it to a Category-2 equivalent cyclone as it made landfall near Qui Nhơn on November 11 at 18:00 UTC.[4][6] After making landfall, Lingling rapidly weakened, with the JMA downgrading it to a tropical depression and the JTWC downgrading it to a tropical storm on November 12 at 0:00 UTC.[4][6] The JTWC issued its final warning on the system hours later at 6:00 UTC, with the JMA doing the same at 12:00 UTC.[4][6] Lingling degenerated into an area of low pressure over northern Cambodia the same night.[5]

The local name Nanang was retired and replaced with Nando for the 2005 season due to the damages it caused in the Philippines.[citation needed]
