Due to the large size and fast movement, a major tidal surge is likely for southern Japan, including Tokyo

Lan has gone crazy. 18Z intensity is set to 130 kt, the second super typhoon this season, joining Noru.

Holy crap it picked up fast once convection on the NW side got closed off properly. It looks like a CMG ring should form soon http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/floater ... -long.html

the JT forecast as well as JMA is too slow. This makes landfall around 18Z Sunday. This will be FLYING

LAN is now forecast to become a Cat 5 by JTWC.
Very impressive structure:

Incredible.

WDPN32 PGTW 202100
MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR SUPER TYPHOON 25W (LAN) WARNING NR 22//
RMKS/
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
SUPER TYPHOON (STY) 25W (LAN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 383 NM SOUTH-
SOUTHEAST OF KADENA AB, HAS TRACKED NORTHEASTWARD AT 06 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICTS A RAPIDLY CONSOLIDATING SYSTEM WITH A 50NM ROUND
EYE, WHICH PROVIDES GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE INITIAL POSITION. STY 25W
HAS RAPIDLY INTENSIFIED (RI) OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS FROM 75 KNOTS TO
130 KNOTS (55 KNOTS). UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES EXCELLENT
OUTFLOW, PARTICULARLY POLEWARD, WHICH IS TAPPING INTO THE
MIDLATITUDE WESTERLIES OVER JAPAN. A 201838Z NOAA-19 89GHZ IMAGE
INDICATES A SYMMETRIC EYEWALL WITH FRAGMENTED SPIRAL BANDING. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 130 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK INTENSITY
ESTIMATES RANGING FROM T6.0 (115 KNOTS) TO T7.0 (140 KNOTS). STY 25W
IS TRACKING POLEWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP LAYERED
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE PREVIOUS
PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE. HOWEVER, PEAK INTENSITY IS NOW SET AT
140 KNOTS BASED ON THE ONGOING RI PHASE. ADDITIONALLY, INITIAL WIND
RADII HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED BASED ON A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF A RECENT
ASCAT IMAGE, WHICH SHOWS UNUSUALLY EXTENSIVE GALE-FORCE WINDS.
B. EIR IMAGERY INDICATES SOME EYE WOBBLE, HOWEVER, STY 25W IS
TRACKING GENERALLY POLEWARD TOWARD CENTRAL JAPAN. STY LAN SHOULD
PEAK WITHIN THE NEXT 12 HOURS THEN WEAKEN AS IT APPROACHES JAPAN AND
BEGINS TO INTERACT WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE BY TAU 24. AFTER TAU 24,
STY 25W WILL ENCOUNTER STRONG VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, BEGIN TO INTERACT
WITH LAND AND WILL WEAKEN SIGNIFICANTLY. THE SYSTEM WILL COMPLETE
EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION BY TAU 48 AS IT GAINS FRONTAL
CHARACTERISTICS AND BEGINS TO ACCELERATE NORTHEASTWARD. STY 25W IS
FORECAST TO MAINTAIN EXTENSIVE GALE-FORCE WINDS DUE TO THE VERY
LARGE SIZE OF THE SYSTEM, AND PROXIMITY OF COLD-SURGE WINDS AND
GRADIENT WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONTAL ZONE CURRENTLY SITUATED
OVER JAPAN. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT,
THEREFORE, THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK.//

JT is incredibly too weak at landfall. This is going to be MUCH stronger than 75 kts.

The 30-40 kt forward speed is going to result in winds closer to 100 kts at landfall, even though Dvorak may indicate 70-80 kts.

I am also not sure how tropical this will be when the eye reaches the coast

Amazing how Lan was able to get up to 7.0 so quickly. In Irma's and Maria's, Dvorak was 6.0 to 6.5 when they were found to be upper end Cat 5's. Being underestimated here. Very warm eye with very cold cloud tops.

ADT is showing a lower estimate, probably due to the very large eye. It's tough when there is conflicting data - the eye is much larger than Irma or Maria had at peak intensity. That said, there isn't much experience with large eyes and areas of cold cloud tops in the Atlantic with Recon.

AMSU estimate is also running way lower than Irma and Maria had at peak intensity. If you take the blend of data, 130kt seems to be a good fit.
The relatively loose structure with over-sized eye on microwave and visible imagery just don't scream CAT5 intensity to me.
