Correction to the above. Here is revised ACE list top 20. Got it from this site:https://global-tropical-cyclones.com/ All sorts of neat global TC stats here. Allows one to quantify all basins season-to-date well along the historical info. For the list attached, for some reason they counted Paka from 1997 twice. I think b/c the storm formed in the cntrl Pacific and crossed into the wrn Pacific. So really #20 on the list should be Lola from the NWPAC in 1957. Also this site is great as well.https://tropical.atmos.colostate.edu/Realtime/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vortex95 Posted yesterday at 02:17 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:17 AM 44 minutes ago, Chinook said: It's not a fish storm, it's a mammal storm! It has become a very large typhoon, which is to be expected w/ a system around this long gradually moving out of the tropics, but the inner core reforming like that w/ a smaller eye that a few days ago is surprising. The other day the eye was about 35 nm in diameter, but now about 20 nm. We still have another 5 days before landfall, so it may form a giant eye yet. Fcst to pass right over Okinawa. Three METAR sites to look at for Okinawa for the passage -- RODN, ROTM, and ROAH. It's too bad the WSR-88D at RODN was decommissioned a few years ago!

vortex95 Posted yesterday at 07:35 AM Share Posted yesterday at 07:35 AM Global models has been showing a very active monsoon trough in the NWPAC w/ as many as 5 TCs at once. 5 named storms in this basin has happened many times. 6 only once on 8/15/2018. You get large monsoonal depressions and small spin-up gyres that are not always declared by JTWC. GFS for Monday shows 5 distinct systems of various intensity and size.
