Re: WPAC: MOLAVE - Typhoon
AMSU at 1055Z gives an estimate of 976mb/78kt, which is very consistent with surface observations. An argument for 85kt can also be made if you give more weight to KZC.

JTWC said that Molave will get stronger west of the Philippines, expected to be very strong when it hits Vietnam

Note the eye structure of Molave while it moves over the Philippines when the radar worked.

The radars are working fine, they (PAGASA) just doesn't release all the radar data.

I see then, but look at the eye structure, a very great call by the JTWC to upgrade this to a Typhoon.

Yes but the problem is they waited way too long to upgrade. They should have upgraded yesterday.

It likely bacame a typhoon rapidly very close to the Philippines, & in between JTWC warnings.

No. It was a typhoon for awhile yesterday with that eye. JTWC refused to upgrade it until it made landfall which makes absolutely no sense... But at least they actually have it as a typhoon now. They struggle with RI's

They also struggle with the Dvorak technique, Severe Tropical Storms had eyes, but they were unsure if it was a typhoon, the JMA always call tropical systems typhoons if it had an eye & persists.

That’s not good...hitting nearly the same area already heavily impacted from floods brought by TS Linfa and at a much stronger intensity as well.

Re: WPAC: MOLAVE - Typhoon
Rainfall is really more intense with this typhoon compared to other typhoons that passed south of my location (Tagaytay).
Last time i experienced rainfall of this magnitude from a TC was way back in 2009 - Ketsana. This probably wont last as long though - Molave is moving away.

Re: WPAC: MOLAVE - Typhoon
These passes are roughly two hours apart. Unsurprisingly, crossing a mountainous island had a rather adverse effect on the core.
