WPAC SINLAKU: Severe Tropical Storm - Discussion

Greatings from eyewall city, Taiwan.

It's been rampaging for over 3 hours now and we managed to find shelter in the women's toilets at the port facility (luckily no screams when we burst in with our cameras.) Judging from radar we're in the northern eyewall and it's been FIERCE.

Power is still on so managed to get some awesome video. I also managed to record a gust hand held of 71mph which nearly blew me off my feet. I recorded a pressure of 966hPa which I believe to be reasonabley accurate.

It didn't go straight NW, but turned due west making landfall SE of Ilan City. CWB is expecting it to loop over Ilan for the coming few hours, so be careful!!

Official SLP from Ilan City at 18Z was 972.7 hPa, yours could be justified

Over NE Taiwan.

Taiwan taking a big toll on this typhoon.

The worst of the eyewall finished around 4am so we head back to the hotel to crash out exhausted. We get the best possible pictures we could given the lighting situation. The video should be awesome and I'll try and get that online ASAP. We're heading back to Taipei this afternoon along the NE coastal road so will be interesting to see the effects of the storm along there.

Near my in-law's hometown of Fengyuan a good-sized bridge had a section wash out, sending three cars into the raging river. They got over 1300mm of rain so far with over 700mm expected tonight. Incredible amount of flooding everywhere.
