Typhoon Nabi swept across southwestern Japan from Monday evening
to Tuesday. In doing so, the storm unleashed very strong, damaging
winds and torrential, flooding rain. The island of Kyushu was hardest

As of late Tuesday morning, EDT, the core of Typhoon Nabi is over
the southernmost Sea of Japan 75 miles to the north-northwest of
Hiroshima, island of Honshu, Japan. Moving north-northeastward at 20
mph, the storm has highest sustained winds of 85 mph. Nabi will cross
the Sea of Japan during the next 24 hours while weakening and
accelerating, then pass over Hokkaido, Japan's northern island, and
southern Sakhalin Island, Russia, as a moderate tropical storm from
midday Wednesday to Wednesday evening.
As of late Tuesday morning, EDT, an un-named tropical storm is
plying the Philippine Sea. Centered 275 miles northwest of Yap Island,
the storm has top sustained winds of 45 mph; it is moving
northwestward at 14 mph. The cyclone is forecast to strengthen on a
northwestward path that would keep it over open water through Friday;
it will probably become a typhoon by Thursday or Friday.
