The name Noru has been used to name four tropical cyclones in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The name was contributed by South Korea and means a roe deer. Tropical Storm Noru (2004) (T0429, 32W) – remained out to sea. Tropical Storm Noru (2011) (T1113, 16W) – merged with the extratropical remnants of Talas. Typhoon Noru (2017) (T1705, 07W) – impacted Japan and is tied as the second longest-lasting northwest Pacific tropical cyclone on record. Typhoon Noru (2022) (T2216, 18W, Karding) – a rapidly intensifying Category 5-equivalent typhoon that impacted the Philippines and Vietnam.
After the 2022 storm, the name Noru was retired and will never be used again as a typhoon name. Replacement names will be announced in 2024.
