Your a bit off the mark there

We actually draw charts and analyse the South East ASian and West Pacific oceans at my work. We get the official warnings and reports for typhoons in this area as soon as they are issued. Typhoons in this area (and cyclones here in Australia) can intensify extremely quickly due to the extremely hot sea water temperature. An increase in wind speed like that is not unusual if you moniotr these guys closely

At 1200 GMT time Neoguri had sustained winds at 80knots and was expected to weaken rapidly as it crossed land. Its not yet considered a monster (still very strong though), but if it does fool the forecasters and turn out to sea instead of crossing land (although very unlikely) it could gather strength.

Good web site too

The mods needs to give you a special tag as the ats meteorologist. Every time I read one of you posts it takes me back to Earth and Ocean Sciences Classabout natural disasters. I guess because almost every time you answer a weather question someone is usually asking about the super storm of tomorrow.

Anyways, keep up the good work!

Awww...dont...your making me blush...

Yeah the only problem is that my speciality is not forecasting, its more aviation, weather phenomenen and upper air meteorology then anything else.

Also, it gives people the impression that I am spreading disinfo..lol
