It may be jumping the gun a bit to start a thread on a system that hasn't yet been classified but if the last few GFS runs come close to verifying we may have quite a dangerous typhoon in the west Pacific in a few days. Invest 95W formed near the Marianas today and pressures are falling steadily there. The system is currently under high wind shear but conditions should become more favorable and the system is expected to consolidate over the next couple days. It is expected to head in the general direction of Okinawa in about 5-6 days, then depending on which model run you believe it could turn north toward southern Japan (GFS 06z run) or continue west toward Taiwan (GFS 12z run). Stay tuned.
