| Tropical Storm Chaba - Terra MODIS October 25, 2010 02:41 GMT |
Early on October 20, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) upgraded an
area of low pressure into a tropical depression. Later that day, the
JMA reported that the tropical depression slightly intensified. The
next day, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center started monitoring the system
as tropical depression 16W. On October 23, the system entered the
Philippine Area of responsibility and the Philippine Atmospheric,
Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) started
monitoring the system as Tropical Depression "Katring" On October 24,
the JMA and JTWC upgraded the tropical depression into a tropical storm
and the JMA named it "Chaba". On October 25, the JMA further
upgraded the storm into a Severe Tropical Storm (source: wikipedia.org). View image in [small (2.3 MB)][large (18.4 MB)] size. |

Meteorological Department (IMD) upgraded the area of low pressure to a depression giving it the
designation "BOB 04". At that time it was located approximately 250 kilometres (160 mi) southwest of
Sittwe, Myanmar. Early on October 21, the IMD upgraded Depression BOB 04 to a deep depression.
That day, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) designated the system as Tropical Cyclone 04B.

On September 20, the JTWC had reported that a Tropical Depression had formed and designated it with 13W. Later on the same
day, the depression showed a slight improvement in strength. The next day, JMA started monitoring the depression while the JTWC
upgraded it into a Tropical storm. Later on the same day, the JMA further upgraded it into a tropical storm naming it
"Malakas". On September 22, the storm strengthened slightly and moved towards the Japanese Islands (source: wikipedia.org). The image of the typhoon was acquired by MODIS onboard of Terra satellite on September 23. 2010 at 01:00 GMT. View image in [small (1.7 MB)][large (13.2 MB)] size |

| Severe Tropical Storm Malou - Terra MODIS September 06, 2010 05:05 GMT |
Malou started out as a tropical depression wardering around the Western Pacific. It moved into the
Philippine Area of Responsibility and was given the name Henry. It remained for a depression for two days
before it strengthened in to a tropical storm and was given the name Malou. Malou drifted over the Ryukyu
Islands and became a severe tropical storm. After passing through Ryukyu Islands, Malou was expected to
make a landfall on Jeju Island; instead, it turned northeast and landed on Tsushima Island as a tropical
storm on September 7. It then moved along the coast of Honsh. and made another landfall near Tsuruga,
Fukui Prefecture, Japan on September 8. After the second landfall, Malou weakened into a tropical
depression over Shizuoka Prefecture (source: wikipedia.org).The satellite image of the typhoon in true color was captured by MODIS sensor onboard of Aqua satellite on September 06, 2010 at 05:05 GMT. View image in [small (0.9 MB)][large (6.2 MB)] size. |

| Tropical Storm Kompasu - Terra MODIS September 01, 2010 04:45 GMT |
Midday of August 29, the Joint Typhoon Warning Centre (JTWC) issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert
(TCFA) on the system as the Low Level Circulation Centre had become organized. On the morning of that
same day, the JTWC announced that the system had quickly developed into a tropical storm and assigned the
designation "08W". Intensification continued, then by midday of August 30, the JMA reported that the
depression had intensified into a tropical storm and assigned it the international designation "Kompasu". The storm later weakened to a category one typhoon in the Yellow Sea, before veering northeast and making
landfall on Ganghwa Island, northwest of Incheon and Seoul, killing at least four people. Kompasu was
the strongest tropical storm to hit the Seoul metropolitan area in 15 years. Kompasu weakened to a
tropical storm over the Sea of Japan on September 2 (source: wikipedia.org). The satellite image of the storm was captured by MODIS onboard of Aqua satellite on September 01, 2010 at 04:45 GMT.View image in [small (2.1 MB)][large (17.5 MB)] size |

tropical depression warning since it had not strengthened to a tropical storm. At 20:00, 09W suddenly
intensified into a tropical storm, and was named Namtheun. However, due to the development of another
stronger tropical storm Lionrock at South China Sea, the increase of intensity of Namtheun was difficult.
In the evening hours of August 31, Namtheun weakened into a tropical depression north of Taiwan Strait,
then continued to move south to southwest, and skirted the southern coast of Fujian province (source: wikipedia.org). The satellite image of the storm was captured by MODIS onboard of Terra satellite on August 31, 2010 at 04:45 GMT.View image in [small (2.2 MB)][large (6.2 MB)] size |
