Tropical depression likely to strengthen into storm, Hai Phong area is extremely hot

Forecast of the path of tropical depression

The assessment on the morning of July 17 shows that the tropical depression will enter the East Sea on the night of July 18. Thanks to favorable conditions of a very warm sea surface, the storm will increase in intensity very quickly. It is likely that this will be a very strong storm this year in the East Sea.

Specifically, within 24 hours (from 1:00 a.m. on July 17), the tropical depression moved rapidly in the west-northwest direction, traveling about 20 km per hour and strengthening into a storm.

At 1:00 a.m. on July 18, the storm center was in the sea east of Luzon Island, Philippines, with a strong intensity of level 8, gusting to level 10.

In the next 24-48 hours, the storm will move northwest, continuing to maintain a very fast speed of about 20-25 km/h and is likely to strengthen.

At 1:00 a.m. on July 19, the storm center was in the eastern part of the North East Sea with a strong intensity of level 10, gusting to level 12. Thus, in just one day, the storm could increase by 2 levels.

It is forecasted that in the next 48 to 72 hours, the storm will move mainly in the west-northwest direction, traveling 15-20 km per hour and may strengthen further.

According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, the forecast of the storm's development in the East Sea will be very complicated and unpredictable, requiring continuous updates of the latest forecasts.
