The name Nalgae has been used to name four tropical cyclones in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. It was submitted by North Korea and it means a wing.
- Tropical Storm Nalgae (2005) (T0506, 06W) – stayed at sea
- Typhoon Nalgae (2011) (T1119, 22W, Quiel) – impacted the northern Philippines a few days after Typhoon Nesat devastated the same area
- Tropical Storm Nalgae (2017) (T1711, 13W) – stayed at sea
- Severe Tropical Storm Nalgae (2022) (T2222, 26W, Paeng) – a large and deadly storm that devastated the Philippines, killing 150 people
After the 2022 storm, the name Nalgae was retired along with 5 others. In 2024, the name was replaced by Jamjari, which means dragonfly in Korean.[1][2]
