Major Typhoon Shanshan off the coast of Japan

Typhoon Shanshan has been intensifying as expected, and is now a Category 3 on the Saffir Simpson scale with winds near 115 miles per hour, and higher gusts. The storm is expected to strengthen some more today as it makes a close pass or even landfall on the northern tip of Amami Oshima, and then recurve northwards and northeastwards into the western coast of Kyushu.
Dangerous typhoon conditions are expected all the way up Kyushu, with extraordinary amounts of rain possible. At the moment, totals of over 500mm are indicated in several areas. The storm is moving slowly, and the forecast confidence is rather low. The expectation is that the storm will pass through Honshu but could become trapped and loop around Shikoku before dissipating.
Elsewhere, Hurricane Gilma is back up to major status once again, now a Category 3 in the open Pacific. The storm could still reach Hawaii but is likely to be substantially weaker, and possibly a mere remnant low by the time it makes its closest approach.
Tropical Storm Hone is moving away from Hawaii, and Tropical Storm Hector formed the other day and is likely near its peak already as a moderate tropical storm.
The Atlantic is showing signs of development later in the week, with a new tropical wave to watch as it heads towards the Lesser Antilles. At the moment, a storm similar or stronger than Ernesto seems to be a reasonable scenario next week.

umm are you aware the average date for the F storm in the atlantic is early september? And besides man, 7 of the last 8 atlantic seasons had been above average man its time we see a inactive season in the atlantic

[@中度颱風茉莉]

@@psyclone500tv8 NHC says the average date(1991-2020) is August 29, and the reason I said that is because I would have to confess my love to a guy if Francine doesn’t form in August

How can a storm form over land in India

[@urmattforecaster]

I thought Shanshan was still a tropical storm, that storm really rapidly intensified (Rapid Intensification).

its been a typhoon for the past couple days

I still find it wierd that Ampil and Gilma aren't red coloured because both of them reached Cat 4, but I guess they are orange coloured because this is probably Nathan estimations or maybe just animation error 🤷‍♂️🤔
