Vince

2024-25 season · AU202425_15U

Category 1

History

Severe Tropical Cyclone Vince originated as Tropical Low 15U, which the Bureau of Meteorology designated on 31 January 2025. The system was named Vince on 2 February 2025 and intensified to reach Category 3 status on the Australian tropical cyclone scale. The cyclone formed during a particularly active period of the 2024–25 Australian region cyclone season, which was notable for producing an above-average number of tropical and severe tropical cyclones — the most since the 2005–06 season.

Vince exited the Bureau of Meteorology's area of responsibility on 4 February 2025, moving out of the Australian region before making any landfall on the Australian coast. The system developed concurrently with Tropical Cyclone Taliah, both having originated from tropical lows designated on the same date. Taliah similarly intensified into a severe tropical cyclone before also exiting the basin.

The 2024–25 season in which Vince formed was collectively responsible for over two billion US dollars in damage and 54 fatalities across all systems, though the bulk of those impacts were attributed to other cyclones, particularly Zelia and Alfred. No specific damage, casualties, or notable impacts were recorded for Vince itself, consistent with its track away from populated coastlines before departing the Australian region.
