Super Typhoon Halong in West …
Title Super Typhoon Halong in Western Pacific
Description On July 14, 2002, Super Typhoon Halong was east of Taiwan (left edge) in the western Pacific Ocean. At the time this image was taken the storm was a Category 4 hurricane, with maximum sustained winds of 115 knots (132 miles per hour), but as recently as July 12, winds were at 135 knots (155 miles per hour). Halong has moved northwards and pounded Okinawa, Japan, with heavy rain and high winds, just days after tropical Storm Chataan hit the country, creating flooding and killing several people. The storm is expected to be a continuing threat on Monday and Tuesday. This image was acquired by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Terra satellite on July 14, 2002. Please note that the high-resolution scene provided here is 500 meters per pixel. For a copy of the scene at the sensor's fullest resolution, visit the MODIS Rapid Response Image Gallery.

Typhoon Tingting
Title Typhoon Tingting
Description Typhoons Mindulle and Tingting spin side by side in the Pacific Ocean on June 30, 2004. Mindulle (image left) left seven dead and two missing (according to news reports) after it scraped across the Philippines on June 29 with winds reaching up to 173 miles per hour. When the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] (MODIS) on NASA?s Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite snapped this image the next day, the maximum wind speed had slowed to 125 miles per hour. Mindulle appears to be moving towards Taiwan and the eastern coast of China, shown in the upper left corner of this image. On June 29 and 30, Typhoon Tingting was dumping heavy rain on Guam and the Northern Marianas. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center [ https://metoc.npmoc.navy.mil//jtwc.html ] reported that the storm had maximum sustained winds of 75 miles per hour with gusts up to 92 miles per hour. This true-color MODIS image was acquired on June 30, 2004. It is available in multiple resolutions from the MODIS Rapid Response Team [ javascript:openNASAWindow('http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/gallery/?2004182-0630/MindulleTingting.A2004182.0430') ] at Goddard Space Flight Center.
