Fung-Wong - Perfect Storm? (Weather)

CWB has on 'extremely torrential' rain warning (which is still better than 'very extremely torrential') but it hasn't really happened here yet, though judging by the radar it should ramp up soon. At the moment a gentle breeze coming down of the mountains from the west and intermittent showers.

Still a fairly large degree of separation between CWB and JTWC, the latter having it going directly through kaohsiung.

It's pretty small and it remains to be seen how much rain it's carrying, but it's an unusual direction for a typhoon to approach. In theory, with the rotation of the rain bands, it could be a bit of a reverse of fanapi and marokot with a lot of the rain ending up on the east coast, but like i said, nothing much yet. will be watching the rainfall to the south of us to see what it's packing.
