Typhoon Sinlaku
Typhoon Sinlaku can be seen south of Japan in this true-color image taken on September 2, 2002, by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), flying aboard NASAs Terra spacecraft. At the time the image was taken, the hurricane was moving straight towards Taiwan and packing sustained winds of 110 miles (176 kilometers) per hour. The storm is likely to make landfall in Taiwan by the morning of September 5.
