http://www.force-13.com/stormtracking.html Day 63 in the Atlantic, Day 81 in the Eastern Pacific Tropical Storm Jebi is beginning to near Hainan Island, China, as an intensifying tropical storm. The storm is likely to make landfall on the island in around 24 hours, possibly as a strong tropical storm nearing typhoon status. Blue Typhoon Warnings are in effect for the southern Chinese coast, west of Macau. Hong Kong currently has a Signal #3 Warning in effect, and Macau has Signal #1 hoisted as of upload time. Jebi is expected to move through Hainan and then onto northern Vietnam, eventually dissipating over northern Thailand or Laos. Heavy rains may cause flooding in these areas. Hurricane Gil has intensified slightly since the last video update, and now has winds of 80mph as it moves westward out to sea. Invest 90E, once with a high chance of development, has fading chances, and is down to 40% per the NHC Invest 91L has resurfaced over the Bahamas, and has a low chance of development as it moves northwards.
