Latest Video Update on Tropical Storm Haikui now affecting Okinawa, Amami, and the rest of Japanese Islands. Haikui is bringing bands of heavy rains, gusty winds, and rough waves; these conditions will last tonight and into tomorrow. Haikui is forecast to continue moving slowly west northwestward, becoming a typhoon tomorrow as it moves over the Eastern China Sea. Haikui is currently forecast to make landfall along the coast of Zhejiang Province south of Shanghai as early as Wednesday morning. Stormy conditions are happening now and will last into tomorrow.
