Description
English: Tropical Depression 09W spun up in the open waters south of Okinawa, Japan on June 28. At 11 a.m. EST (1500 UTC) on that date the maximum sustained winds were near 28.7 mph (46.3 km/h) and the center of the storm was located about 419 nautical miles south-southeast of Kadena Air Base, Okinawa.

By the morning of June 29 the system had strengthened as it sat east of the Philippines and was named Tropical Storm Prapiroon. At 11 a.m. EDT (1500 UTC) on June 29, Prapiroon was centered near 20.0 degrees north latitude and 129.7 degrees east longitude. That’s about 404 nautical miles south-southeast of Kadena Air Base. The storm was moving to the northwest at 5.7 mph (9.2 km/h). Maximum sustained winds were 52 mph (83 km/h).

The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) predicts that Prapiroon will move toward the north-northwest and intensify on June 30. Prapiroon is expected to continue intensifying and have peak wind speeds of about 86 mph (139 km/h) as it passes over the East China Sea in a few days.
