The name Ulysses has been used for two tropical cyclones in the Philippines by PAGASA in the Western Pacific Ocean. It replaced the name Unding.

  • Typhoon Dolphin (2008) (T0822, 27W, Ulysses) – a Category 2-equivalent typhoon, sank a cargo passenger ship, killing at least 47 people
  • Typhoon Vamco (2020) (T2022, 25W, Ulysses) – a destructive Category 4-equivalent typhoon, made landfall on Luzon and in Vietnam

The name Ulysses was retired from use in the Philippine Area of Responsibility following the 2020 typhoon season and will be replaced with Upang in the 2024 season.[1][2]

  • Storm Ulysses - A storm across Ireland and Great Britain in 1903 before storms were routinely given names was stronger than any in modern times.[3] It was named Ulysses because it may have inspired a passage in James Joyce's novel of that name: "Lady Dudley was walking home through the park to see all the trees that were blown down by that cyclone last year and thought she'd buy a view of Dublin."[4]
