is important, here we only present seasonal mean quantities for the June to August (JJA) season, the most active season for TCs in the WNP; the Technical Report shows the results for all seasons. This analysis serves as a starting point to help build physical understanding to underpin analysis

These were derived from daily temperature (T) or precipitation data using the following definitions: • Growing Season Length (GSL) = period (days) bounded by daily T_mean > 5 °C and < 5 °C (after 1 st July) for ≥ 6 days. • Heating Degree Days
