Typhoon KAEMI is moving in south of Sakishima Islands, and will move near the southern part of Taiwan, according to forecasts. This typhoon is then likely to make landfall at China, and the areas that the typhoon is expeted to hit are severely damaged by the previous typhooon, Typhoon Bilis.

Typhoon KAEMI has shown a small but well-balanced spiral from the beginning, and now its core cloud is showing a tendency of enlargement. This may suggest the onset of intensification, so we need to pay more attention to this one.

Typhoon KAEMI was formed near Mariana Islands. This is now a small typhoon. By the way, as addressed in Press Release, today we announced the opening of the collection of satellite imagery since 1981, and the opening of a new site Typhoon Front for the participatory media of typhoon information. Please check the movement of the typhoon also on this site.
