Description
English: Super Typhoon Songda reached maximum sustained winds of 161 mph on May 26 making it a category 5 Typhoon on the Saffir-Simpson Scale as it passed east of Luzon, the Philippines. The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite captured a look at its rainfall on May 27, 2011 at 0710 UTC (3:10 a.m. EDT) when it had weakened back to a still-powerful Category 4 Typhoon. Super typhoon Songda contained bands of extremely heavy rainfall with numerous powerful thunderstorms. The red areas represent heavy rainfall (falling at about 2 inches/50 mm per hour). The yellow and green areas are moderate rainfall, falling at a rate between .78 to 1.57 inches (20 to 40 mm) per hour. Sondga is now headed toward Kadena Air Base island and is forecast to skirt mainland Japan's east coast on 28 and 29 May 2011.
Deutsch: Supertaifun Songda erreichte am 26. Mai maximale andauernde einminütige Windgeschwindigkeiten von 161 mph, was den Wirbelsturm zu einem Taifun der Kategorie 5 auf der Saffir-Simpson-Hurrikanskala machte, als er östlich von Luzon an den Philippinen vorbeizog. Ein Satellit der Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) machte am 27. Mai 2011 um 0710 UTC eine Aufnahme der Regenfälle durch diesen Taifun, als er sich bereits zu einem noch kräftigen Kategorie-4-Taifun abgeschwächt hatte. Supertaifun Songda weist Bänder mit extrem starken Niederschlägen auf sowie zahlreiche starke Gewitter. Die rot markierten Gebiet zeigen starken Niederschlag an (mit etwa 50 mm pro Stunde). Die gelben und grünen Fläche sind mäßige Regenfälle mit 20 bis 40 mm pro Stunde. Sondga richtete sich dann in Richtung der Kadena Air Base und es wurde vorausgesagt, daß der Taifun am 28. und 29. Mai die Japanische Ostküste streift.
