Typhoon Chan-Hom (Philippine name Falcon) is within striking distance of China, and landfall is expected in the next 24 hours as a significant typhoon, if not in intensity then in its size. At present, the storm is a Category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale with sustained 1-minute winds of 115mph, but is expected to weaken significantly before landfall due to cool sea surface temperatures.
