JAPAN-WEATHER-TYPHOON-VONGFONG
This October 11 2014, satellite image from NASA shows Typhoon Vongfong southwest of Japan. Vongfong churned towards Japan on October 11, 2014, injuring at least 20 people as it pounded the southern Okinawan islands with ferocious winds and driving rain. The monster storm was estimated to be about 110 kilometres (68 miles) southeast of Naha City in Japan's southernmost area of Okinawa at 0800 GMT, according to the nation's meteorological agency. The Joint Typhoon Warning Center has downgraded the storm from a super typhoon, but Japanese officials said it remained "large and very strong" and warned of high waves, torrential rain and landslides. Packing gusts of up to 234 kilometres (145 miles) per hour, the typhoon was moving north slowly, at 15 kilometres (nine miles) per hour. == RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE / MANDATORY CREDIT: "AFP PHOTO HANDOUT / NASA"/ NO MARKETING - NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS – NO A LA CARTE SALES / DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS ==
