Meteorological history

{{storm path|Nakri_2019_track.png}}

On November 5, a depression off the coast of the Philippines was spotted, eventually developing into Tropical Depression Quiel. Quiel intensified to become the twenty-fourth tropical storm of the season and was named Nakri by the Japan Meteorological Agency, JMA. As Nakri headed towards the northwestern Philippines, on November 7 it began to unexpectedly strengthen and also change direction, heading back out into the South China Sea and towards southern Vietnam. November 9 saw Nakri begin to weaken, dropping below typhoon intensity. It eventually crossed the Vietnamese coast on November 11.{{Cite web |title=Nakri 2019 – Hurricane And Typhoon Updates |url=https://blogs.nasa.gov/hurricanes/tag/nakri-2019/ |access-date=2022-06-19 |website=blogs.nasa.gov |language=en-US}}
