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]
- A storm across Ireland and the United Kingdom in 1903 before storms were routinely given names, stronger than any in modern times, was called Ulysses because it inspired a passage in James Joyce's novel of that name.[3]
