Typhoon comin’ in.
Heading straight for Taichung/Hsinchu.
This picture mirrored from Taiwan CWB website.
According to the CWB, this one has a maximum sustained windstrength of 53m/s currently and gust strength of 63m/s. That basically puts it into the ‘worst type of Typhoon’ category in the Japanese system (grade 5), and the ‘pretty darned bad’ category (Grade 3) in the International system.
So I think we can call it ‘a biggy’.
