Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Typhoon Talas continued its northward journey over Japan on September 2, 2011. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite acquired this natural-color image the same day.
On September 2, the U.S. Navy’s Joint Typhoon Warning Center reported that Talas had maximum sustained winds of 50 knots (95 kilometers per hour) and gusts up to 65 knots (120 kilometers per hour)—down slightly from speeds of the previous day. The storm was located roughly 185 nautical miles (345 kilometers) south-southwest of Kyoto, Japan. On September 2, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) forecast that Talas would continue moving northward. As of September 3, the JMA estimated, Talas would likely have wind speeds roughly the same as those experienced on September 2. Deutsch: Taifun Talas setzte am 2. September seinen Weg nordwärts über Japan hinweg fort. Das Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) auf dem Terra-Satelliten der NASA fertigte diese Bild in natürlichen Farben an jenem Tag an. Am 2 September meldete das Joint Typhoon Warning Center, daß Talas andauernde einminütige Windgeschwindigkeiten von 50 Knoten (95 Kilometer pro Stunde) und Windbögen von bis zu 65 Knoten (120 Kilometer pro Stunde) erreichte, was ein leichter Rückgang zu den Werten des Vortages darstellte. Der Sturm befand sich rund 185 Seemeilen (345 Kilometer) süd-südwestlich von Kyoto, Japan. Ebenfalls am 2. September sagte die Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) voraus, daß Talas weiter nach Norden ziehen würde. Am 3. September, so schätzte die JMA, würden die Windgeschwindigkeiten von Talas etwa denen des 2. Septembers gleichen. |
