The storm's center is now only about 160km east-southeast of Quy Nhon, equivalent to about 170-180km to the sea area of Quang Ngai , a distance at which strong storms of level 14-15 can cause serious impact even before making landfall. The storm is maintaining wind speeds of level 15, gusting above level 17, meaning it is among the most destructive storms to appear in the East Sea in recent years. In the next 3 hours, the storm will continue to move straight west at a speed of 25 km/h, without weakening. Please note, whether the storm's center makes landfall in Binh Dinh (formerly) or directly in Quang Ngai, the level of danger is almost equivalent.
The extremely strong wind zone of Typhoon No. 13 has a very large radius; with a strong typhoon of level 13-15, the dangerous gust area can extend 80-120km from the center. If the typhoon's center enters Quy Nhon, Quang Ngai will still be within the strong wind belt of level 11-13, gusting to 14-16, causing roof damage, tree uprooting, and damage to factories and public works. If the typhoon's center sweeps near the Sa Huynh - Duc Pho area, the coastal area of Quang Ngai will experience strong winds at the edge of the center, with even greater destruction. When the extremely strong typhoon approaches, Quang Ngai will still experience: Gusts of level 14-15 in Ly Son and coastal areas; Waves 7-9m high, storm surge 0.5-1.0m; Heavy rainfall of 200-400mm, locally >500mm, with a very high risk of flash floods and landslides.
