Starting in the mid-2000s there has been a significant and unusual growth in intense typhoon occurrences over the Philippine Seas. The increase from before to after the mid-2000s is an occurrence rate of fewer than 0.4 per year to nearly 1.5 serous typhoons per year.

Comparing two periods before and after the mid-2000s indicates that intense typhoons rarely occurred over the PS in September before the mid-2000s, with a frequency of fewer than 0.4 per year, but reached up to nearly 1.5 per year after the mid-2000s. This increase is mostly attributed to climate shifts in the area creating the conditions for the formation of such typhoons more common.
