Tropical Tidbits as a source

Is 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. SomeoneWiki04 (talk) 14:08, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is fine, but depends on personal views maybe. High Admiral JMT (talk) 03:03, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology

Can someone provide the etymology like on previous storms? I am guessing that it's Thai though. Borgenland (talk) 15:59, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Krathon, Mangkhut, and Durian are all fruit names. High Admiral JMT (talk) 00:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

a historical event in the East Sea

In 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)[reply]

Possibly, yes. Plus, September 2024 hosts an above-average typhoon number. High Admiral JMT (talk) 00:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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"

I 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:

https://apnews.com/article/taiwan-typhoon-krathon-rain-e4acaaf0fbf22779c1f0124ee2f2712b

Here is a wikitext snippet to use as a reference:
