Part of the 2017 Pacific typhoon season

Tropical Storm Kirogi, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Tino, was a weak tropical cyclone that affected the Philippines and Vietnam. The thirty-ninth tropical depression, twenty-fifth tropical storm, and fourteenth system to affect Vietnam in the 2017 Pacific typhoon season,[1] Kirogi formed as a tropical depression on November 16 in the Moro Gulf. After being given the local name Tino by the PAGASA, it entered the South China Sea, intensifying into a tropical storm and receiving the name Kirogi from the Japan Meteorological Agency on November 18. Continuing westwards, it weakened into a tropical depression before making landfall near Cam Ranh Bay in Vietnam on the next day, dissipating shortly afterwards. Kirogi's remnants later contributed to the formation of Cyclone Ockhi.

Kirogi caused flooding in the Philippines and Vietnam, with trees and power poles toppling in Ho Chi Minh City. Eight people were killed in Vietnam.
