Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
Jebi is now a TD and it won't really be bothering anyone doing the ole recurve NE of Japan. TS Krathon is about ready to be a typhoon. On satellite it probably already is. You can see an eye now. This one now looks to impact Taiwan in the coming days as it turns more to the NNE. It may get the Koreas or Japan in the longer term. Not sure yet that far out.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
Jebi is back up to a TS now and may even become a typhoon briefly as it recurves NE of Japan. Meanwhile, Krathon is a now a powerful typhoon headed towards Taiwan and then potentially towards the Koreas.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
Jebi is a typhoon now about ready to do the re-curve NE of Japan. The only change to Typhoon Krathon is it is expected to slow down and nail Taiwan for several days.

Jebi is back down to a TS moving NE and away from the mainland. Typhoon Krathon is starting to hammer Taiwan and the nightmare for them is just beginning.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
TS 21W or TS Barijat continues moving to the NNE and eventually a little more NNW motion is expected in the coming days. Still not seeing a threat to Japan.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
We now have TD 22W which looks to be getting its act together in short order. This system is expected to track over the N Philippines then eventually into SE Asia.

We also have 97W which has a low chance of development.

TS Trami is approaching the N Philippines at this time. No changes to the above post. 98W still has a medium chance to develop.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
TS Trami looks to impact SE Asia, like Vietnam / Cambodia area over thew weekend into early next week.
We now have TD Kong-Rey which has formed NW of Guam moving to the NW and eventually turning more North and missing the Philippines. It may also become a typhoon as well. Too early to know if China or Japan will be threatened or not by this one.

Finally, 98W has a medium chance to develop.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
No changes to TS Trami as it continues to track towards SE Asia. Kong-Rey is now a TS and is expected to become a typhoon and track in between Taiwan and Japan as it begins to turn more to the NW. Some of those smaller islands in the southern part of the island chain will be impacted by this system.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
TS Trami is now impacting Vietnam. Kong-Rey is still expected to become a typhoon. The center should miss Taiwan as it turns more to the north but it'll be close.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
Trami is now a TD so we can take this one off the board as it weakens over Vietnam. Kong-Rey is just about ready to become a typhoon. The track has now changed. Taiwan looks to get hit now by this system. Then the center gets close to the Chinese coast weakens to a TS then turns NE and potentially heads towards Japan. This one is going to be on the board for a while.

Re: West Pac Typhoon Season Discussion
Typhoon Kong-Rey has a well defined eye on satellite and is a very strong typhoon. IT will nail Taiwan then brush the Chinese coast. It will then turn NE and potentially brush the S areas of Japan.
https://www.metoc.navy.mil/jtwc/products/wp2324.gif
Wave 90W is also on the board with a low chance of development.
