The strongest global storm of 2022 is barreling across the East China Sea, threatening Japan's southern islands and risking wild winds along China's east coast.
Super Typhoon Hinnamnor is currently packing sustained winds of about 160 miles (257 kilometers) per hour and has gusts over 195 miles per hour, according to the US Joint Typhoon Warning Center. The maximum significant wave height is 50 feet (15 meters).
Hinnamnor would be the strongest storm of 2022 based on the maximum sustained wind speed recorded at this point, according to an official at the Japan Meteorological Agency.
The Hong Kong Observatory said at 10 a.m the typhoon was centered about 230 kilometres east of Japan's Okinawa and is forecast to move west-southwest at about 22 kilometers per hour toward the Ryukyu Islands.
