JMH WeFAX: Super Typhoon Hagibis

Daily Express on Hagibis

Yesterday on October 07 2019, I had the opportunity to log the JMH Meteorological Weather Fax from the Japan Meteorological Ahency (JMA),Tokyo.

The reception was relatively good but the image was not that clear due to deteriorating propagation, but I am still happy to receive it. Here it appears to be an update about the Typhoon #Hagibis to #Japan.

The ‘Weather Channel’ lists the typhoon as a Catagory 5 ‘Super typhoon’; while the Daily Express speculates that this can be the strongest on earth with winds touching 195mph.

My prayers and good wishes goes to the Japanese people and to the people of other countries in the region that might be affected by this typhoon. Please be safe.

I have used MultiPSK software on a HP Win7 laptop to receive the said transmission.

Please note that shared weather fax image and the data in them are owned by the Japan Meteorological Bureau - JMA/ JMH, but the rx-ed/ received image is mine. Please kindly do not share or reproduce the above without asking.
