I think that's exactly what happened in 2006 were there were stronger typhoons.
How about the monsoon? Are we likely to experience less rainfall? If I remember it right there fewer rains in 2006. India is receiving below average rain from the monsoon, is this because of the El Nino?

: Yes, depending on the strength of El-nino...
: remember 1997-1998 El-nino phenomenon, there
: were fewer tropical cyclone cross our
: country. Even if there's any... most of them
: either weakens or die because of drier air
: entraps to its circulation because of
: insufficient moisture available over both
: lower and upper troposhere. Because warmer
: water travels or stall more to the east of
: International dateline... more tropical
: cyclone developing further east but... they
: become more stronger and its life span
: become longer because they travel more to
: the open ocean and not much land mass can
: interrupt its intensification... that is why
: more stronger tropical cyclone happens
: during el-nino.

: i had heard (from PAGASA) that there is a

: more westerly typhoons would mean less
