Summary

Description

Typhoon Mawar was approaching the coast of Japan on the afternoon of August 24, 2005. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite captured this image at 1:05 p.m. local time. At this time, Mawar had peak winds around 195 km/hr (120 mph). It is a few hundred kilometres south of Tokyo and heading north at around 12 mph. Forecasters call for it to come ashore in southern Honshu (the largest of the islands that make up Japan) in the afternoon of August 25, 2005.
