According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, a strong storm is active in the eastern sea, central Philippines, international name is FUNG-WONG.

At 1 p.m. on November 8, the center of the storm was at about 12.8 degrees North latitude; 130.6 degrees East longitude. The strongest wind near the center of the storm was level 13 (134-149 km/h), gusting to level 16. Moving west-northwest at a speed of about 30 km/h.

Forecast: Around the morning of November 10, storm FUNG-WONG is likely to move into the eastern sea area of the North East Sea.

Currently, typhoon FUNG-WONG is operating in a very favorable environment with high sea surface temperatures (29-30 degrees) and low vertical wind shear, so the storm's intensity will continue to increase and is likely to reach super typhoon level tomorrow (November 9). When entering the sea area southeast of Luzon Island (Philippines), encountering unfavorable environmental conditions, the storm is likely to weaken in intensity.

Around the morning of November 10, Typhoon FUNG-WONG is likely to move into the eastern sea of the North East Sea, becoming the 14th storm to operate in the East Sea in 2025. At this time, the subtropical pressure branch in the north (the guiding stream for the storm to move) weakens in intensity and expands further south of the storm, leading to the storm tending to move more northward. When moving to higher latitudes, the storm will enter the guiding stream of the upper westerly wind zone, so it is likely to change direction to the northeast and move out of the East Sea.

According to the National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting, normally, at the end of the season, storms often move west, even west-southwest and make landfall in the southern central provinces. However, storm FUNG-WONG moved north and went out. This is the unusual point of this storm.

According to experts, due to the combined influence of the cold air moving eastward, from tonight (November 8), the eastern sea area of the North East Sea will have strong northeast winds of level 6-7, gusting to level 8-9. From tomorrow night (November 9), the wind in this sea area will strengthen to level 8-9; near the storm center, it will be strong at level 10-12, gusting to level 14-15, with waves 3.0-5.0 m high, later increasing to 6.0-8.0 m. The sea will be very rough.

Around the morning of November 10, storm FUNG-WONG is likely to move into the East Sea with a level 13 intensity, gusting to level 16 and maintain its intensity as it moves northward, so from November 10 to 12, the eastern sea area of the North East Sea is likely to be affected by strong storm winds of level 11-13, gusting to level 16, and waves of 8.0-10.0 m high. The sea will be very rough.

All vessels operating in the above mentioned danger zones are susceptible to storms, strong winds and large waves.
