It has already found its sweet spot... convection is now getting colder while the eye keeps getting warmer and... D-Max is still ahead of it.
IMO, VongFong has a legitimate chance at Cat 5.

Different from Typhoon Phanfone,this one may affect directly Okinawa as it has continued to move mainly west more than what Phanfone did at the 134E longitude.

TBH I am not surprised to have this a super typhoon next warning... This sudden intensification is impressive.

The microwave pass I posted earlier was very revealing that it was about to bomb out. Now the conventional satellite imagery has caught up. The current microwave passes are incredibly impressive. This is definitely the strongest TC since Haiyan in my opinion. It could have a run at T 8.0 in raw T numbers in the next couple of hours. Not sure if it will be able to sustain it or not. Current raw ADT numbers are coming in at T 7.7 from SSD.

no way this is only 120 knots.
IMO, should be at least 145 knots by now.

Based solely on satellite intensity estimates, Typhoon #Vongfong appears to be strongest storm globally since Haiyan

Very impressive dark grey fully encircles the eye on AVN imagery. Almost looks like Haiyan.

They updated the 12z Best Track now up to 135kts. Still a tad conservative.

This is at least 150 knots now based on eye continuing to warm and convection is getting stronger.

Maxed out at 7.7 earlier, highest since haiyan.

How does the JTWC assumes this is not currently a Cat.5?

OMG …What a jaw dropping intensification by Typhoon Vongfong with central pressure of 908mb and vmax of 146knts and still lot of intensification possible and can beat or atleast come close to Haiyan

No doubt it is the Haiyan of 2014. Luckily Japanese mainland will escape from this monster. But Okinawa in great danger
