Super Typhoon Dolphin has become a Category 5 in the last 12 hours, making it the second to do so in May for the first time ever in the Western Pacific. It is also the third Category 5 to form in the Western Pacific, the earliest date by far for this to happen. It is also the sixth Category 5 storm worldwide in 2015, more than 47 of the last 55 full years, and it's only May!
