Part of the 1998 Pacific typhoon season

Typhoon Vicki, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Gading, was a typhoon that was notable for having a strange eastward-northeastward track through the Philippines and Japan. The eleventh tropical depression, seventh named tropical storm and fourth typhoon of the inactive 1998 Pacific typhoon season, Vicki originated from an area of disturbed weather in the South China Sea.[1][2]
