日本のはるか南、マーシャル諸島付近で熱帯低気圧の雲がまとまり始めました。
早ければ、きょう２２日（月）の内に、台風２６号になるかもしれません。

その後、東に進むため本州に接近する可能性は低いと見ています。

As of 9:00 AM on Friday the 11th, Typhoon LAN, an extremely strong typhoon, is slowly moving northward over the sea approximately 90 kilometers southeast of Chichi-jima Island.

  KHANUN  is currently passing near Tokunoshima, Kagoshima Prefecture. As of 6:00 AM, the central pressure is 970 hPa, and the maximum wind speed near the center is 30 m/s, with maximum gusts of 40 m/s. The typhoon is slowly moving eastward. The Amami region and parts of Okinawa Main Island are experiencing strong winds of 25 m/s or more. The typhoon is expected to make a right-angle turn to the north on Monday, the 7th, and head towards mainland Kyushu. If it follows the center of the forecasted path, it is projected to make landfall on the Satsuma Peninsula in Kagoshima Prefecture on Wednesday, the 9th.
