[HURAKAN]

What an unexpected turn to the west?!?!?! It was forecasted to make landfall in NE Taiwan but looks like is making landfall in the central portion of the island.

[dolebot_Broward_NW]

If you look through this thread just about every forecast track has this west turn. Except for the one I posted LOL. Not sure where I got that from either...

[Swimdude]

Wow, sure looks to die out quickly... And hehehe y'all should've heard this guy on TWC this morning say "Haitang"... He did it sounding perfectly, well, Asian. It was awesome. Then he sort of chortled to himself, as if to say, "Wow, that wasn't bad!"

[P.K.]

The lowest pressure currently recorded on Taiwan is 973hPa at Hsinchu. The JMA had it making landfall in this area for several days.

Here's a few pics I have found so far:

[Gorky]

Is it just me or has the Typhoon stalled over Taiwan? It made landfall last night way before Emily made her lanfall but on this latest image it looks as though its still just inland on the east coast of Taiwan... (On second looks it almost looks as though it's centre is back off the coast...)

[tim_in_ga]

Haitang did a little loop thing and it's still sitting on Taiwan:

http://www.cwb.gov.tw/V4/warning/Data/B20.gif

This one doesn't want to go away!

[Gorky]

That probably explains thigns. I thought it had made landfall last night but it obviously had other plans and went on a little meander before hitting the coast this morning. This could result in some pretty serious flooding issues unfortunately...

[tim_in_ga]

I'd say Taiwan is still in for a LOT more rain:
