This is the 11th typhoon 'Hinnamno' seen from the satellite.
Yesterday (1st), after absorbing the 23rd tropical depression off the coast of Taiwan, it developed into a medium-sized typhoon with a radius of more than 300 km.
The central pressure is 935 hpa, and the wind blows at 49 m/s at the center, which is a 'very strong' typhoon.
Currently, it is moving at a slow speed of 2 km per hour by turning north in the sea about 420 km southeast of Taipei, Taiwan, but it is expected to gradually increase its speed in the afternoon.
Hinnamno is expected to pass the sea 500km south-southwest of Seogwipo around 9 am on the 5th, and then pass the sea 90km southwest of Busan around 9 am on the 6th.
The Korea Meteorological Administration predicted that although the route is still flexible, the typhoon has a tendency to deviate to the west than originally expected, so there is a possibility that it will land in the southern coast of Gyeongsangnam-do.
At the time of arrival in Korea, the radius of strong winds is expected to exceed 400 km, which is expected to affect the entire country.
The Korea Meteorological Administration predicted that up to 500 mm of heavy rain could fall in Jeju Island and the southern coast, especially from Monday to Wednesday next week.
It is already raining on Jeju Island and the southern coast under the influence of water vapor pushed by the typhoon, and it is expected that it will rain up to 350 mm or more on Jeju Island and up to 150 mm on the southern coast until the day after tomorrow.
The Korea Meteorological Administration said that for the time being it will rain heavily with gusts of wind centered on Jeju Island and the southern coast, and urged people to prepare for safety accidents caused by flood damage and wind in low-lying areas.
