On the 2nd August 2023 the eyewall of powerful typhoon Khanun passed to the south of Okinawa – usually this would be a “bust” in storm chasing terms. However Khanun was no ordinary typhoon…

Great documentary and good chase Mr James hoping we got to see some more.
impressive!
Another fantastic video and commentary, James! Those winds and waves were incredible. I dread to think what it would have been like in the eyewall after seeing what you experienced 100s of miles away from it 😳. Thanks for being one of the very few that are brave enough to document these storms and share them with the rest of the world!
Awesome video! Love your editing and footage.
Wow 😮amazing typhoon capture
One thing I can definitely say since I have been watching your Storm chasing videos all of your video footage is on point and that says a lot about your experience for chasing typhoons.
Thanks!
You said it knocked out power to a quarter of the island; it was far greater than a quarter of the island without power – many of which went for upwards for more than a week/closer to two. You also didn’t mention how it swung back and hit a second time as a lesser storm only two days later.
Hi
Truly amazing footage of great quality, James! Having that outer eyewall developing as it was passing over the southern portion of Okinawa made a world of a difference, and you captured it with much skill!
Good stuff. Thx!
Typhoon KHANUN's impacts on Okinawa were really such a surprise, definitely a lot more wind than you'd normally expect from the CPA to the island this one had! Your shots are beautiful as always, and this was truly an awesome intercept!
