DOKSURI (DINDO) is expected to continue moving west-northwestward throughout the forecast period. On the forecast track, the core of Doksuri will pass very close to the northern tip of Cagayan...near Santa Ana, Cagayan on Thursday morning and pass over Calayan Island, while traversing Balintang Channel on Thursday afternoon. It will be approaching the coast of Hong Kong early Saturday morning.

Maximum Sustained Winds (1-min. avg) are near 65 km/hr (35 knots) with higher gusts. Continued increase in strength will be expected as the system moves closer to Extreme Northern Luzon and will be at near-typhoon intensity on Friday afternoon while over the Balintang Channel.

Tropical Storm Force Winds (62-85 km/hr) extend outward up to 55 kilometers (30 nautical miles) from the center. DOKSURI is a large-sized tropical cyclone with a diameter of 890 kilometers (480 nautical miles).

The following is the summary of the 3-day forecast outlook on this system:

THURSDAY EARLY MORNING: Intensifying as it approaches the NE Coast of Cagayan...about 211 km ESE of Santa Ana, Cagayan [2AM JUN 28: 17.9N 124.0E @ 100kph].
