Unknown
Extratropical cyclone, remnant low, tropical disturbance, or monsoon depressionEarly on September 26, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center reported that an area of convection was developing along a broad low level circulation center in an area of vertical wind shear about 450 km (280 mi) to the southeast of Guam.[1] The Convection had a good poleward outflow into a tropical upper tropospheric trough, however it did not have a symmetrical low level circulation center and convection had not consolidated.[1] It was then designated as a Tropical Depression during the next day by the Japan Meteorological Agency as the depression's convection, started to consolidate around the low level circulation center. This came before later that day the JTWC designated the depression as 19W due to the low level circulation center rapidly consolidating becoming well defined with deep convective banding forming and consolidating around the center. The depression was moving towards the west at this time under the influence of the subtropical ridge of pressure.

Early on September 28, the National Weather Service Weather Forecast Office in Guam using data from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center placed Ulithi, Faraulep and Fais under tropical storm warnings and declared Tropical storm watches for Yap and Ngulu whilst the depression was moving towards the state of Yap.[2] Tropical storm warnings were then declared for Yap and Ngulu later that morning as the depression was moving to the northwest of Faraulep.[3] These warnings stayed in effect until early the next day when they cancelled the warnings for Faraulep, Fais and Ulithi after the depression had intensifed into tropical storm Parma and had passed by the islands.[4][5] NWS Guam then placed Koror and Kayangel under a tropical storm watch later that day before cancelling all warnings early on September 30.[6]
Philippines
The National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) advised all local government officials in all of Luzon to evacuate all the people if needed to secure their safety from the wrath of Super Typhoon Parma (Pepeng). In addition to the NDCC, they gave out relief goods and other necessities in preparation for Parma. Different non-government agencies such as GMA Kapuso Foundation and ABS-CBN Foundation also gave out relief goods.[7][8] President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo also requested PAGASA to monitor the super typhoon every two hours and update its website.[9] Also, the PAGASA advised all areas with public storm signal warnings to be alerted against storm surges, landslides and flash floods. The coast guard of the Philippines placed the whole country in red alert, meaning that the agency would monitor the whole country, especially northern and central Luzon. All ferry stations with routes from Luzon to Visayas and vice-versa suspended their operations. Fishermen were already advised not to go to sea to avoid turbulent waves.[10]
