Super Typhoon Sepat churns toward Taiwan

Plenty of activity in our hemisphere but thought it was worth mentioning Super Typhon Sepat, about 460 mi. SE of the southern tip of Taiwan, packing 140 kt. winds and (according to the NRL site) an estimated pressure of 918 mb. Some very impressive satellite pics on the NRL site. Sepat is moving NW at 9 mph and figures to cross southern Taiwan in about 36-48 hrs. Official forecast calls for ever-so-slight weakening before landfall, but it still figures to be a very destructive storm.
