Tropical Storm Jangmi (pronounced [tɕaŋ.mi]), known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Seniang, was a weak but destructive tropical cyclone that impacted the Philippines during late December 2014. It produced heavy rainfall which caused serious flooding. Flooding in Philippines caused 66 deaths and at least $28.3 million damage.[1]
The last of twenty-three named storms of the annual typhoon season, the late-season cyclone remained weak throughout most of its lifespan. The tropical storm reached peak strength on December 29 near Surigao del Sur, Mindanao.[2] Jangmi dissipated just before the 2015 Pacific typhoon season started.
