NAHA, Oct 20 (News On Japan) –
Typhoon No. 24 is currently located over the southern seas and is expected to track westward toward Vietnam later this week, with no direct impact anticipated on Japan. As of now, the storm’s central pressure is 1000 hectopascals, with maximum sustained winds reaching 20 meters per second. Satellite imagery shows a significant cloud mass developing in the southern region, indicating intensified activity around the system.

Forecast models predict that the typhoon will continue moving westward across the South China Sea in the coming days, eventually approaching Vietnam. While Japan will remain outside the storm’s path, Okinawa and nearby areas may still experience indirect effects, including heavy rainfall and increased wave activity. Although wave heights are expected to rise mainly over the southern seas, some coastal regions in the Nansei Islands could see slightly rougher conditions around midweek. However, this will likely be the result of seasonal northerly winds rather than the typhoon itself.
Residents are advised to monitor the latest forecasts and updates through weather news apps, as changing conditions may still influence local weather patterns even without a direct typhoon approach.
