Typhoon Nari has just made landfall in the extreme south of the Korean peninsula with winds of 75 knots, that's 85 mph. The storm is likely to weaken rapidly as it passes over land, and also due to adverse atmospheric conditions.
Tropical storm Wipha has formed in the Pacific and will be making a graceful arc across the ocean, south of Japan, before slamming into South Korea (possibly North Korea) in 5 days' time with winds of 100 knots or 115 mph. This is long-range forecasting from JTWC, but this storm definitely needs watching.
Tropical depression Ingrid is a few hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles, but being torn apart by winds in the upper atmosphere. It is unlikely to bother anybody but seafarers. No other system in the pipeline at the moment, although it is suggested that something might form in the Caribbean later in the week. Watch this space.
