Next Typhoon Predicted Following DOKSURI

-


As of 3 p.m. on Sunday, Typhoon DOKSURI is currently located over the eastern waters of the Philippines and moving in a northwestward direction at a speed of 10 km/h. The central atmospheric pressure is 985 hPa, with maximum sustained winds near the center at 30 m/s and maximum gusts reaching 40 m/s. Destructive winds with speeds of 25 m/s or higher are associated with the typhoon.

The typhoon is expected to gradually intensify and continue moving in a northwestward direction. By tomorrow, Monday, it is likely to reach a strong intensity, and by the following day, Tuesday, it may become a very powerful typhoon. The peak strength is anticipated to be on Tuesday, with the central atmospheric pressure possibly dropping to 925 hPa.

If the typhoon follows the forecasted track's center, it is predicted to pass through Taiwan early on Thursday, the 27th, and make landfall near Putian City in Fujian Province, China, on Friday, the 28th.

The probability of Ishigaki-jima and Iriomote-jima entering the area of destructive winds is currently at a maximum of 30%. However, the likelihood of entering the strong wind zone is considered to be even higher.


Now, after DOKSURI, a new tropical depression is already being predicted.
The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) has issued a forecast indicating that the next tropical depression is expected to approach the Okinawa region on Tuesday, August 1st. Due to its location in an area with warm sea temperatures, there is also a possibility of it developing into Typhoon No. 6. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the United States also shares a similar outlook.

Whether it will approach Kyushu or Honshu is still uncertain, but it would be prudent to keep a close eye on the movement of this tropical depression, especially in the Okinawa area.

KHANUN is moving eastward over the East China Sea. As of 5:00 AM, the central pressure is 970 hPa, with maximum sustained winds near the center at 30 m/s and maximum gusts of 45 m/s. The southern parts of the Amami Islands and the Okinawa Main Island region are currently experiencing strong winds exceeding 25 m/s. Although the typhoon’s intensity has slightly weakened, it remains powerful, and there is a possibility of it intensifying again over the Pacific after directly impacting the Amami Islands on Sunday the 6th. Following that, it is expected to change its course to the north and make landfall in either Miyagi or Kagoshima Prefecture on Wednesday the 9th, traversing Kyushu. Due to the slow movement of the typhoon, the impacts such as heavy rain, strong winds, and high waves may persist for an extended period. [Announcement by the Japan Meteorological Agency on August 5, 2023, at 5:33 AM] In the Okinawa and Amami regions, please exercise extreme caution against strong winds, high
