A procession of ferocious storms has been lining up across the Pacific Ocean, with three of the most deadly set to hit land. A spectacular satellite image this morning revealed an unsettled Earth with Typhoon Halong, Hurricane Genevieve, Hurricane Iselle, and Hurricane Julion simultaneously churning up the ocean. The image, taken at 00:00 UTC (1:00 BST), shows the storms far from land – but they have since travelled and are about to unleash their force on Hawaii and Japan. 四个台风或飓风是在2014年8月6日左右。 2014年第11号台风夏浪(Halong) 、第13号超强台风“GENEVIEVE(吉纳维芙)” 2014年夏威夷群岛上空的双飓风,分别为飓风Iselle 和 飓风Julio

Typhoon Halong shown at 00:00 UTC (1:00 BST) on 6 August 2014 as it gradually makes its way towards Japan. The country is bracing itself for high waves and heavy rain this weekend, where Halong is forecast to make landfall. Halong will hit Kyushu Saturday local time and slam into western Shikoku Saturday evening

Hurricane Iselle pictured over the Pacific Ocean, where it is moving gradually westwards towards Hawai'i. Iselle is described by the National Hurricane Center as an annular hurricane, because it has a large symmetrical eye with relatively little convection to create rain bands outside the centre
