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. The central pressure is 940 hectopascals, the maximum sustained wind speed near the center is 45 meters per second, and the maximum gust speed is 65 meters per second. Within a radius of 130 kilometers from the center, there is an area of storm-force winds with speeds exceeding 25 meters per second. The typhoon is expected to continue moving northward while intensifying. There is a possibility that by next Tuesday the 15th, it could directly hit the Tokai region with strong force. As of now, the forecast cone indicating the area where the center of the typhoon has a 70% probability of entering is relatively wide, as the typhoon's future track has not been precisely determined. Therefore, it is important to be aware that it could come quite close not only to the Tokai region but also to the Shikoku and Kinki ...

  ４月にフィリピン近海で台風２号が発生して以降、新たな台風が発生しない状況が続いていますが、最新のアメリカ環境予測センター（NCEP）の全球数値予報（GFS）の計算では、来週後半に台風が発生する可能性が出てきました。予想では、６月２９日水曜日にフィリピンの東で熱帯低気圧が発生し、７月１日金曜日に沖縄付近を通過。その後、上海方面に進む見通しです。熱帯低気圧は発達次第で台風３号になるかもしれません。 ただ、ヨーロッパ中期予報センター（ECMWF）の計算では、熱帯低気圧にならないほどの低圧部の予想となっていて、熱帯低気圧が発生するかどうかはまだはっきりと言えない状況です。 Since typhoon No. 2 occurred in the sea near the Philippines in April, no new typhoon has continued, but the latest Global Forecast Prediction (GFS) calculations of National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) show a possibility that a new typhoon will occur in the second half of next week. It is expected that a tropical cyclone will occur in the east of the Philippines on Wednesday, June 29, and will pass near Okinawa on Friday, July 1. After that, it is expected to proceed toward Shanghai. Tropical cyclones may become typhoon No. 3 depending on their development. However, according to the calculation by the European Center for Medium-Range Predictors (ECMWF), it is predicted that the low p...
