Dianmu will spin northward over the South China Sea to a likely rain-soaked landfall on South Korea at midweek.
As of Monday morning, EDT, the center of Dianmu was located about 200 miles northwest of Okinawa. Movement was towards the north at 15 mph with highest sustained winds of 50 to 55 mph.
A landfall, as a tropical storm, on South Korea, most likely in the southwest, is forecast for early Wednesday.
Such a landfall would bring with it a serious threat of flooding rain. A lesser threat of damaging winds would accompany a tropical storm landfall.
Were Dianmu to strengthen significantly more than forecast, even to a typhoon, destructive winds would happen near its landfall.
