    N Atlantic forecasts are in and low and this season has had a boring start. El Nino going big is expected to remotely shear tops of developing systems there.

    In West Pacific Typhoon Bavi was probably strongest of year crossing some islands (with US interests). It has weakened and recurved away from Taiwan. Expect typical winds in coastal China to the north and much rain and later in N Korea.

    When storms weaken in terms of low central barometric pressure, they still carry big rain.

    Pacific Ocean has been most interesting for such storms this year. Typhoon Dolphin looks to attain 930 millibars central air pressure this Tuesday or Wednesday. Few storms get that low. Excitement on Okinawa soon after.
