Typhoon Sarika (disambiguation)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The name Sarika has been used to name three tropical cyclones in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The name was submitted by Cambodia, meaning a songbird.

  • Severe Tropical Storm Sarika (2004) (T0419, 23W)
  • Tropical Storm Sarika (2011) (T1103, 05W, Dodong) – affected the Philippines during early-June.
  • Typhoon Sarika (2016) (T1621, 24W, Karen) – Made landfall in the Philippines as a category 4 typhoon in mid-October.

The name Sarika was retired after the 2016 typhoon season and was replaced with Trases, which means a woodpecker.
