3-DAY FORECAST OUTLOOK*

TY Neoguri (Florita) is expected to move northeast to east-northeast during the next 24 to 48 hours...and will slightly turn back to the northeast with a much faster forward speed through 72 hours. On the forecast track, the typhoon will be traversing the northeastern part of the East China Sea today and will make landfall along the western part of Kyushu, Japan by Thursday morning. It will then be passing along the southern shores of Shikoku and Honshu, Japan on Thursday evening through Friday. By early Saturday morning, Neoguri will be over Northwest Pacific Ocean, hundreds of kilometers to the southeast of Hokkaido, Japan.

Neoguri (Florita) will continue to rapidly lose strength through the next 24 hours. By 48 to 72 hours, the typhoon will be downgraded to a Tropical Storm (TS) while moving across the Southern Coast of Japan due to unfavorable atmospheric conditions and the effect of the Japanese terrain which will also lead Neoguri to Extratropical transition. Advance Intensity Forecast (AIF) shows its 1-minute maximum sustained winds decreasing to 75 kph by early Saturday morning.

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

THURSDAY EARLY MORNING: Turns northeast as it bears down the west coast of Kyushu...weakens to a Category 1 Typhoon...about 140 km SW of Nagasaki, Japan [2AM JUL 10: 31.8N 129.0E @ 130kph].
FRIDAY EARLY MORNING: Rapidly accelerates towards the east-northeast while traversing the southern shoreline of Honshu...becoming an Extratropical Cyclone (aka. Middle-latitude Cyclone)...about 305 km SW of Tokyo, Japan [2AM JUL 11: 33.9N 137.2E @ 85kph].
SATURDAY EARLY MORNING: Accelerates northeastward while moving back to the Northwest Pacific Ocean...attains Extratropical status...about 495 km ENE of Sendai, Japan [2AM JUL 12: 40.0N 146.2E @ 75kph].

*Please be reminded that the Forecast Outlook changes every 6 hours, and the Day 2 and 3 Forecast Track has an average error of 100 and 250 km respectively...while the wind speed forecast error, averages 35 kph per day. Therefore, a turn to the left or right of its future track and changes in its wind speed must be anticipated from time to time.

Important Note: Please keep in mind that the above hazards summary and forecast outlook changes every 6 to 12 hrs!
