typhoon masak is set to become a second
typhoon in a week to strike the korean
peninsula
and a third storm lies right behind
ising min
is tracking the back-to-back typhoons
she joins us from the adidas weather
center
sing man we should stay alert for mesa
but another typhoon
hai shen is gathering strength and may
target the peninsula
following this one that's right kanyang
hai shin is currently developing into a
typhoon over
very warm ocean waters and continuing
heading north towards
south korea although typhoon mesa has
passed its peak central atmospheric
pressure
still remains very strong at 945
hectopascals
maysack is forecast to pass through
waters east of tejua island tonight and
reach
southern coastal areas near busan at
around 2 a.m tomorrow
and as it heads closer maysac is packing
strong gust winds
if we take a closer look at the latest
forecast on jeju island and the coastal
areas of kyongsang namdu province
strong winds of 30 to 50 meters per
second are expected
not only that sea levels will be at
their highest from tonight in coastal
areas of the southeast and up teju
island
and because it is highly possible that
maysac's landing time
may overlap with the high tides it
raises the risk of potential flood
damage
for those in the cities of busan ursan
and masan as well as on teju island
please stay extra alert and what's
interesting about this typhoon is that
it's on a similar trajectory to that of
mammy from
2003 which caused some considerable
damage to south korea
casualties from memi were mainly due to
flooding landslides and buildings
collapsing
maesak also has a similar strength to
what mimi did so let's all do our best
to stay safe
i'll be back with more updates later and
back to you kanyon
thank you sigmund and we'll check back
in with our east later in the broadcast
