It is now Super Typhoon Butchoy (Nepartak) and heading to Taiwan with winds of 140 knots (160 mph/260 km/hr). The Super Typhoon Butchoy spares Philippines from landfall but it is pulling the monsoon which brings heavy rain.
Typhoon NEPARTAK continues to intensify as it heads NW on a beeline for Taiwan, and it could get very intense. In fact, the JTWC shows it reaching Cat 5 and then weakening to a still-powerful Cat 4 before slamming into N Taiwan late Thursday night. JMA shows landfall further S, right in the middle of Taiwan. Either way, this could be quite an impact!
