Rappelons qu'à partir d’une certaine intensité, un cyclone tropical est appelé "cyclone" (dans l’océan Indien et au Pacifique sud), "ouragan" (en Atlantique nord et dans le Pacifique nord-est) ou "typhon" (dans le Pacifique nord-ouest), selon la région où il survient.

Le nombre de cyclones tropicaux recensés chaque année dans le monde devrait rester stable voire diminuer, mais la part de ceux les plus intenses devrait grimper.

"À l’échelle mondiale, la proportion des tempêtes de catégories 4 et 5 pourrait augmenter de 0 à 25 %."

#Japan #ExtremeWeather Update Super Typhoon #Nanmadol

This storm has been forecast for a fortnight.

Its impact on Japan is likely to be severe as it will arrive as a formidable typhoon and is forecast to be over Southern Japan for several hours.

This animation shows the typhoon's subsequent development till 9am CEST today.

Three typhoons over the Western Pacific, #Muifa, #Nanmadol and #Merbok.

#Muifa may be the most damaging & costly typhoon in history and is about to landfall for a third time. #Nanmadol is threatening Japan. #Merbok has remained at sea.

Thread.
The thread linked above contains satellite imagery of the last 48 hours of #Muifa's path up China's east coast. #Merbok (below) is now an extra-tropical Cyclone and could cause problems on the Canadian and Alaskan coasts.
Like the last two Atlantic Hurricanes, and Super Typhoon #Hinnamnor which impacted Japan and Korea earlier in September all of these late season storms have been long-lived. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon_H…

But these last two are far and away the most damaging of the season so far.
