Churning the waters of the **rthwest Pacific is the strongest tropical cyclone (https://twitter.com/philklotzbach/status/775309265955201024) of the 2016 **rthern Hemisphere season: Super Typhoon Meranti.*
The storm, which according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center had maximum sustained winds of 155 k**ts, or nearly 180 miles per hour, as of Monday morning eastern time, has southern Taiwan and coastal China in its sights for the middle of the week.*
