Day 74 in the Atlantic, Day 92 in the Eastern Pacific
Typhoon Utor remains a powerful typhoon, and will make landfall in Guangdong Province, China, as a very broad Category 2 storm in the next few hours.
Currently with sustained winds of 110mph, Utor may weaken gradually as it interacts with land and moderate wind shear over the Gulf of Tonkin, before weakening quickly after it makes landfall and eventually dissipating completely inland near the Vietnamese border in a few days.

Red Typhoon Warnings are in effect across southern China, the most severe warning level as issued by the CMA. Signal #8 Warnings are also in effect for Hong Kong and Macau, with the storm making its closest approach in the next three hours. The likely landfall location will be to the northeast of Zhanjiang as a moderate or strong Category 2 typhoon, with sustained winds of 110mph and higher gusts. Due to the broadness of the system, flooding is likely to be a major concern, especially with a slow in movement expected after landfall. A significant storm surge may also occur, due to the storm's history as an intense typhoon.

Elsewhere:
Two new invests have formed in the Atlantic, Invest 92L and 93L
Invest 92L is currently located in the Caribbean, and the chances of development were raised to 30% shortly after this video upload. This system could be the next named storm in the Atlantic
Invest 93L has recently emerged from the African continent, and is likely to pass just south of the Cape Verde islands. This system may also develop into a tropical cyclone before moving west-northwest out to sea.
Invest 90C is currently located to the southeast of Hawaii, and is not likely to develop.
Invest 92E's chances of development is fading as it moves towards the Central Pacific, and has dropped from 70% yesterday to just 20% today. Some computer models insisted that 92E would still develop, but now virtually all have backed away from 92E making it to tropical storm status.
Invest 90S is located in the Southern Indian Ocean, and is likely to be declassified before the next bulletin as it heads poleward.
