Typhoon No. 9 develops in almost the same place, affecting Okinawa
Typhoon No. 9 has hardly changed its position since its formation, and is expected to stay almost in the same place for several days. Conditions such as sea surface temperature and wind flow in the sky are suitable for development, so it is expected to become a very strong force by the 28th (Monday).
From the middle of the week, it will gradually begin to move northward, and the possibility of advancing toward Taiwan is increasing. Please pay attention to future information as the waves and winds may increase in the Sakishima Islands of Okinawa.
Typhoon No. 10 moves north quickly without developing much
Typhoon No. 10 has not developed so much, and it is not expected to be accompanied by a stormy area in the future. From August 27th (Sunday) to 28th (Monday), it is expected to move north quickly in the east of eastern and northern Japan, but it is not expected to be strong and it is expected to pass away from land. impact is expected to be limited.
Depending on the distribution of clouds surrounding the typhoon, it is possible that the rain will temporarily intensify, so be sure to pay attention to rain information.

Reference Results of simulations of paths calculated by meteorological agencies around the world
Each thin line in this figure represents the simulation result of the course calculated by meteorological agencies around the world. The results (members) obtained in the process of the ensemble forecast method are posted to give an image of the wide range of possible paths.
The typhoon is moving westward as it develops, and is likely to change course northward in the waters near the Ogasawara Islands in the second half of the week.
Depending on the subsequent course and degree of development, it may approach the Kanto region and other Honshu areas, and there is a possibility of severe weather during the Obon holiday. There is also concern that the movement will slow down near the Izu Islands, so the forecast error is still large. The error is expected to shrink as the days pass, so please pay attention to future information.

The fourth typhoon occurred in August this year
With Typhoon No. 9 and No. 10, there were four typhoons in August this year. (*Hurricane 8 is a hurricane coming from the western longitude.)
The average number of typhoons in August is 5.7, which is the time of the year with the most typhoons. The number of typhoons this year is slightly lower than usual, but Weathernews forecasts that there will be at least 10 more typhoons by the end of the year.
As autumn approaches, it is expected that the number of typhoons that affect the Honshu area will increase, so please prepare for typhoons and heavy rains in preparation for the coming season.
Also pay attention to the “low pressure area” different from the two typhoons
In addition to Typhoon No. 9 and Typhoon No. 10, a “low-pressure area” has been analyzed in the Mariana Islands. This is part of the monsoon trough that caused Typhoon No. 10, but when combined with weather simulation models from around the world, it seems likely that a new tropical cyclone will occur in this area.
Some calculation results suggest that it will develop considerably and move northward near the Japanese archipelago in early September.

typhoon name
Typhoon names are prepared in advance by member countries of the international organization “Typhoon Committee”, etc., and are given in order of occurrence.
The name of Typhoon No. 9, “Saola,” was proposed by Vietnam, referring to an animal called the Vietnamese antelope. Typhoon No. 10’s name “Damrey” was proposed by Cambodia and is derived from the Khmer word for “elephant”.
