Typhoon Yinxing Surges to Maximum Strength, Poised to Enter the East Sea as Storm No. 7

Typhoon Yinxing reaches peak intensity, set to enter east sea as Storm No. 7

Latest on Typhoon Yinxing

Typhoon Yinxing has reached its maximum strength, classified as a Category 15 storm with sustained winds between 167-183 km/h and gusts surpassing Category 17.

The typhoon is heading west-northwest and is predicted to enter the East Sea on the morning of November 8, marking its status as the seventh storm of the season, despite a slight decrease in strength.

As reported by the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, by 1:00 PM today (November 7), the center of Yinxing was located over the northeastern waters off the coast of Luzon Island in the Philippines, moving at a pace of 10-15 km/h.

In the next day, Yinxing is expected to continue its westward journey, picking up speed to 15-20 km/h as it approaches the East Sea. By 1:00 PM tomorrow (November 8), the storm’s center should be positioned over the eastern waters of the northern East Sea, where it is projected to weaken to Category 14, although wind gusts will remain high above Category 17.

As the storm approaches the Hoang Sa (Paracel) Islands, it is anticipated that its path will shift several times, generally tending towards a decrease in intensity.

Over a 72 to 120 hour period, Yinxing may change its trajectory southwest, traveling at a speed of 10-15 km/h with continued reduction in strength.

In response to Yinxing’s impact, strong winds in the eastern East Sea are expected to range from Category 6-7, increasing to Category 8-11 into tonight. Regions close to the storm’s center could experience winds between Category 12-14, with gusts reaching Category 17. Wave heights are predicted to rise to 4-6 meters, and up to 6-8 meters near the storm’s core, leading to dangerously rough sea conditions.

All maritime operations in these areas face significant risks from thunderstorms, high winds, and gigantic waves.
