Typhoon No. 10 slows as westerly winds missed carrying it along
A confluence of wind and weather factors has resulted in powerful Typhoon No. 10 traveling much slower than expected, increasing the chances of longer-lasting damaging effects.
The typhoon was traveling south of Japan on Aug. 27, moving northwestward, at a speed equivalent to that of a bicycle.
As of 9 p.m., the storm was traveling approximately 80 kilometers east-northeast of Amami, Kagoshima Prefecture, and was essentially “stationary,” according to the Japan Meteorological Agency.
