andyhb Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 New estimate of 160 kts and 897 mb from ATCF. Dvorak technique maxed out at 8.0. This thing is an animal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olafminesaw Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 It did some restructuring and now it has a double eyewall that it will likely maintain through landfall. Pretty neat stuff! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Tropical Storm Koinu could intensify to 110 knots as it approaches Taiwan, as per JTWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Typhoon Koinu now is an 80kts typhoon as per JTWC advisory, so it getting up there into Cat-2 type strength. Most of the rest of the JTWC forecast is similar to what I posted yesterday. JTWC now has 105 knots before a likely landfall at southern Taiwan. It is always interesting to see the -90 C cloud tops for the West Pacific tropical storms/typhoons due to the high tropopause or just simply the high topped convection over those warm waters.

Chinook Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Koinu looking absolutely nuts. It is maxing out at 105 knots now, but will weaken to 85 knots while it is east of Taiwan, and approach southern Taiwan. The landfall forecast has not changed much, except for a few miles. If you check the most recent HWRF, the model might not have been initialized correctly, and then the forecast is completely wrong for some awful reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windspeed Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 A rare case of low shear over the NIO with the TC positioned perfectly under vast anticyclonic flow aloft. This may very well become a Category 4 on Sunday local time there. Expected to make landfall near the Yemen-Oman border and most likely major flooding for both countries.

Windspeed Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Typhoon Gaemi is visibly intensifying and may peak prior to land interaction. Moderate northerly shear has decreased somewhat to allow Gaemi to intensify. The eyewall has become thick and intense on the radar, but the eye is still cloud-filled.
