Typhoon Goni Warning


NCC1701A

Recommended Posts

"A typhoon that is the most intense storm of 2020 is swirling in the North Pacific, and it's heading for a direct hit on the Philippines.

Super Typhoon Goni rapidly intensified this week, and as of Friday boasted sustained winds of 285 km/h, putting it squarely at Category 5-equivalent strength.

Goni looks to keep much of its strength over the next couple of days, and may still be at least Category 3 Sunday morning when it strikes Luzon in the Philippines, the country's most populous island that is also home to the capital Manila."

LoL seems to be!  I received an image from NOAA-15 this morning - still no sign of that typhoon.  Here's the antenna BTW...

your antenna is working extremely well. Congratulations on fabricating it. a total pain to make those curved elements.

 

 I have a SDRDuo, SDRUno, HackRF, and two NooElec SDRs with a Diamond D3000N Discone antenna and various other antennas.

Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC):

 

further intensified (Category 5 - Super Typhoon) and is now having 1-min maximum sustained winds of up to 295 km/h and gustiness of 360 km/h. Source: Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC)

 

Unfortunately it looks like we will be seeing more destruction in the  Philippines soon.

I also thought it would be a pain to construct.  But it was very easy.  The curved elements are just wires connected to the top, midle and bottom supports - so they naturally follow a curved line.  From start to finish, I built this antenna in one morning ????  It works very well! (NOAA-15 image from this morning...)

You could organise guided tours to interested people. Explaining why you have so many and also about the purpose of each....

Right now more concerned with the Philippines as they lost more than 6 thousand in the last super typhoon that hit the same area in 2013.  More than a million have been evaculated but that is a two edged sward with Covid such a problem there.  Winds are now estimated to be at least 315 KPH.

I once considered retiring there.  Storms like this scared me off!

One reason to either live on west coast (land/mountains quickly kills wind speed) and in Southern islands - very few track through Cebu or lower.

reading on Twitter that Goni will be in the top five storm in terms of wind speed to strike land.

it does look like the storm is tracking slightly more south now.
