'''Typhoon Khanun''', known in the Philippines as '''Severe Tropical Storm Odette''', was a strong [[tropical cyclone]] which impacted the [[Philippines]], [[Taiwan]] and [[South China]] in mid-October 2017. The twentieth [[tropical cyclone naming|named storm]] and eighth typhoon of the [[2017 Pacific typhoon season]], the system formed as a tropical depression east of [[Luzon]] on October 11. The depression tracked westward and became Tropical Storm Khanun the next day. It struck Luzon later that day and emerged into the [[South China Sea]] on October 13. Khanun turned west-southwest and decelerated, then turned northwest as it intensified to a severe tropical storm later that day. It strengthened to a typhoon on October 14. The storm rapidly weakened late on October 15 before striking the [[Leizhou Peninsula]]. Khanun emerged into the [[Gulf of Tonkin]] on October 16 and dissipated shortly afterwards.
