Super Typhoon Jebi, a category five system, has Japan in its sights as it tracks across the western Pacific Ocean. A large, well-defined eye is a good indicator of a very strong typhoon, or tropical cyclone as they are known in Australia, and Jebi's is about as well-defined as you'll get. The pressure in the eye of the storm was 915hPa on Saturday morning. Jebi is currently about the strongest it will be, but it will maintain a destructive nature as it approaches Japan over the coming days. On Saturday morning, Jebi was generating wind gusts over 270km/h and waves over 45 feet close to the system. Sustained winds of nearly 100km/h were recorded over 100 nautical miles away from Jebi's centre. Over the last couple of days, the storm has been moving west-northwest across the western Pacific, however forecast models have the storm turning north and reaching the Japanese coast by about Tuesday morning. The coast south of Osaka is currently the area the storm is forecast to make a direct hit, however, as with all volatile systems, they can change direction at will. Destructive winds, heavy rain, extremely large waves and storm surge causing coastal inundation and erosion, widespread flooding and landslides are just some of the risks when systems like Super Typhoon Jebi cross the coast.
