So what typically would happen next, when there is an extremely vigorous spin aloft, but much weaker spin at lower levels? (Come to think of it, this is probably the first time I've actually thought about this question, oddly enough.)

Hard to say. It will likely have about 24 hours to reorganize, which may not be enough time given its disruption. A similar situation may have been Dennis in 2005 after hitting Cuba, it took about 12-18 hours to rebuild the core, then it took off.

It's probably a Cat 1 right now - guessing about 70 kt.

Aftermath footage, also shot by Mr. Reynolds, showed the winds got quite a bit stronger later on than during this video; as many cars got flipped. In this video it looks like a steady 80 mph with gusts to 90 or so to me (video was transmitted around 4:30 am, Taiwan time). The local station was reporting peak gusts of 40 m/s at this time.

Seems that it has entered the Taiwan Strait. Nearby surface observations suggest a central pressure of around 980 mb when it moves back over water.

Looks like the storm decoupled overnight. I can clearly see a mid-level spin racing NW while the low-level center remained near the SW coast of Taiwan. It's unlikely that Nepartak is still a typhoon. Typhoons + mountains = not good.

The center still looks to be hanging right around here based on radar.

The mid-level center is nearing the coast of China south of Fuzhou, about 100 miles away from the LLC. Definitely not a typhoon now.

Here's a graphic demonstrating the decoupling. JTWC appeared to be following the mid-level center with their 15Z advisory. JMA sees the low-level center, but no way Nepartak has 70kt 10-min winds.

This is COMPLETELY unofficial, but here is what I would have as the best track (I know they don't do HURDAT2 in the WPAC but using it here). Taking a look through the satellite analyses, I believe it weakened even more in the last 16 hours before landfall.

That 60kts is for a 10-minute wind average. Converting to 1-minute, they're still saying it has 65-70kt winds, which I think is way too high.

SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TROPICAL STORM 02W (NEPARTAK)
WARNING NR 24//
RMKS//
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TROPICAL STORM 02W (NEPARTAK), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 142 NM
SOUTHWEST OF TAIPEI, TAIWAN, HAS TRACKED NORTHWARD AT 01 KNOT
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICT A RAPIDLY DETERIORATING CONVECTIVE PATTERN ASSOCIATED
WITH THE CIRCULATION OF TS 02W, WITH THE CENTRAL CORE BECOMING
NEARLY DEVOID OF DEEP CONVECTION. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON
RECENT ANIMATED RADAR IMAGERY FROM TAIWAN, SUPPORTING THE CURRENT
BEST TRACK POSITION WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. SUBJECTIVE DVORAK
ESTIMATES RANGE FROM T4.0-5.0 (65-90 KNOTS) FROM PGTW AND KNES, BUT
THESE MAY BE A BIT HIGH GIVEN DVORAK CONSTRAINTS AND THE
DISORGANIZATION OF TS 02W. THUS, THE CURRENT INTENSITY HAS BEEN
DECREASED TO 60 KNOTS. THE UPPER-LEVEL ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES TO BE
FAVORABLE, WITH GOOD POLEWARD AND WESTWARD OUTFLOW AND ONLY 5-10
KNOTS OF VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. HOWEVER, THE CIRCULATION OF TS 02W
CONTINUES TO BE DECOUPLED, WITH THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
(LLCC) LAGGING BEHIND THE MID-LEVEL CIRCULATION TO THE NORTHWEST OF
THE CURRENT BEST TRACK POSITION. GIVEN THESE FACTORS, CONTINUED
WEAKENING IS FORECAST.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE PREVIOUS
PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
B. THE LLCC OF TS 02W HAS SLOWLY DRIFTED TO THE NORTH NEAR THE
PENGHU ISLANDS ACCORDING TO RADAR IMAGERY, WITH THE MID-LEVEL
CIRCULATION CONTINUING NORTHWESTWARD AS EVIDENT IN SATELLITE
IMAGERY. THE MESOSCALE STRUCTURE OF THE SYSTEM REMAINS DISORGANIZED,
WITH A REGION OF LOW-LEVEL CONFLUENCE SOUTH OF THE LLCC ENHANCING A
SEMI-STATIONARY OUTER RAINBAND. IN RECENT RADAR IMAGERY, CONVECTIVE
SHOWERS TO THE WEST OF THE PENGHU ISLANDS EXHIBIT SOME INCREASED
CURVATURE, WHICH SUGGEST THAT THE LLCC MAY REFORM TO THE NORTHWEST
WITH THE DYNAMIC SUPPORT OF THE MID-LEVEL CIRCULATION. UNTIL THE TS
02W VORTEX BECOMES MORE VERTICALLY COHERENT, THE LLCC IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE A NORTHWARD DRIFT. SYNOPTICALLY, THE SYSTEM SHOULD CONTINUE
ON A NORTHWESTWARD TRAJECTORY AROUND THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A DEEP
LAYERED SUBTROPICAL RIDGE WITH A WEAKNESS INDUCED BY A TROUGH AXIS
PASSING THROUGH THE KOREAN PENINSULA. THE NEAR-TERM FORECAST IS
NUDGED SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT OF THE PREVIOUS FORECAST TRACK IN
RESPONSE TO THE NORTHWARD JOG OF THE LLCC. THE FORECAST TRACK FROM
TAU 12-24 LIES TO THE RIGHT OF CONSENSUS BUT TO THE LEFT OF THE
OUTLYING NAVGEM, WHICH TRACKS THE LLCC MORE TOWARD THE NORTH. TS 02W
SHOULD CONTINUE A STEADY WEAKENING, WITH DISSIPATION BY TAU 48 AFTER
ITS LANDFALL ON MAINLAND CHINA IN APPROXIMATELY 18 HOURS. NUMERICAL
MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT LENDING TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN
THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK.//

I just thought of something. Does anyone know the sustained winds recorded by the buoy at the time of the 897 mb pressure reading? The NHC will take the surface winds measured by a recon dropsonde and subtract an additional millibar off the observed pressure for every 10 kt of winds observed to estimate the true central pressure. Could the same procedure be done here?

Read somewhere that peak winds measured was 153 mph don't know if it's sustained or gust and it occurred close to 3 hours before the lowest pressure recorded by a buoy in world history.

Some say it could be as high as 180 knots... :lol:

I'm not sure either, but the Dvorak estimates only supported T7.0 at that time. It was likely at the end of an eyewall cycle and at a secondary peak, but I estimate at the time of that buoy report the intensity was 150 kt.
