Summary edit

Description

Typhoon Longwang was a small but well-organized and powerful storm system when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image at 10:30 a.m. local time, on September 28, 2005. At the time of this MODIS observation, Longwang was 900 kilometers (590 miles) from Okinawa and a comparable distance south of Honshu (the main island in the Japanese chain at the top of this image). It was travelling roughly westward towards the Chinese coast on a track that would take it through the southern fringe of the Japanese islands. Typhoon Longwang had sustained winds of 200 kilometers per hour (125 miles per hour) near the storm’s center, and it was projected to continue to strengthen slightly in the following days.
