Typhoon No. 11 Tonight is the peak of wind and rain
The typhoon is expected to move a little further south from the Sakishima Islands. Although the highly developed rain clouds near the center move over the sea, the rain is expected to temporarily intensify when the outer active rain clouds pass. As the typhoon moves away from us tomorrow, the 3rd (Sunday), the inflow of moist air will continue, and there is a possibility of heavy rain.
In addition, since the pressure difference between Typhoon No. 11 and the Pacific High, which is spreading near Honshu, is increasing, a strong wind area is spreading to the north of the typhoon. Sakishima Islands will need to be careful of strong winds until tomorrow morning and Okinawa main island until tonight.
Wave heights are expected to reach 6 to 7m in the waters near the Sakishima Islands, and around 5m around the main island of Okinawa. Be careful of high waves and swells.
