Summary

[edit]
Description Typhoon Nesat was the equivalent of a strong Category 3 hurricane and was strengthening into a Category 4 storm when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image on June 6, 2005, at 1:40 UTC. Nesat is moving north through the Philippine Sea towards Japan. It is expected to curve east over the North Pacific Ocean before it reaches the Japanese coast. In this image, tight bands of clouds spiral into a delicate eye. These clear, swirling patterns will disappear as the storm dissipates over the cool waters of the Pacific Ocean.
