Impact and landing intensity expectations are close to normal, however, some strong typhoons may occur during this period, (same as 2021).

2 are expected to land (average of 1.8 per year).

The first tropical cyclone to affect Hainan Province is expected to arrive in mid-May, 10 days later than normal (usually early May) with the last tropical cyclone arriving in mid-November, later than usual.
