According to NASA, Talim developed from tropical depression 20W, occurred September 8, 190 km from the US air base Andersen on the island of GUAM. On 11 September he was strong before the storm and got a name. As of 11 PM Eastern time the element is localized in the Philippine sea, accompanied by steady winds at a speed of 111 km/h.
Currently the storm is moving toward Taiwan and the Ryukyu archipelago. 13 sentyabrya Talim can reach land and bring the region’s devastating winds and floods. By the end of the week he will weaken before reaching Eastern China.
Talk will be the second Typhoon in Taiwan over the past few months — in July, the island was struck by Nesat.
