Today we're tracking two storms in the North Pacific.

This #GeoColor imagery from Japan's #Himawari9 satellite shows Tropical Storm #Khanun moving northward over the Korean Peninsula and #TyphoonLan in the open ocean. Lan has rapidly intensified in the last 24 hours with sustained winds of 85 mph.

Typhoon #Lan follows on the heels of #Khanun in causing heavy rainfall in Japan (which is also suffering from a widespread prolonged heatwave) #EarlyWarningsForAll
