The 14th typhoon ‘Chantu’ occurred in the sea about 920 km northwest of Guam.
The typhoon is expected to pass through the eastern coast of the Philippines and reach the southern coast of Taiwan around this holiday.
Typhoon ‘Chantu’ moves northward and gradually develops into a strong typhoon, with strong winds approaching 40 m/s and heavy rain near the center.
The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said that although the typhoon’s course and intensity are flexible, it is closely monitoring the possibility that it may land on the east coast of China early next week and then escape again into the west sea and return to Korea.
If the 14th typhoon ‘Chantu’ affects the Korean Peninsula, it will be the second typhoon this year after the 12th typhoon ‘Ohmais’.
